Lyrics Turin Brakes

Turin Brakes

Road To Nowhere

The dad he was fifty, the kid was nine years old

He stood there like a miracle, with the kid's heart in his hold

'I think I might be dying, at least that's what I'm told'

Inside kid is crying, for the dream has just been sold

I'm only nine, I'm already feeling the strain

It seems everyone's dying or curling up in pain

Well it's just a loser's game, dad

It's just a loser's game

Oh come try and catch me, oh catch me if you can

I'll be the first to miss the grip of your hairless, bony hands

Well people run for shopping malls but you're waiting in the sky

Oh which consumer will you crush and which will you let by

I'm only nine, I'm already feeling the strain

It seems everyone's dying or curling up in pain

Well it's just a loser's game, dad

It's just a loser's game

Oh but the sun in the back of this vehicle

Remember the sun, where the beach boys were playing

Run for the sun

Oh dad, ain't it sad

That we're on this road to nowhere

Oh dad, ain't it sad

That we're on this road to nowhere

Oh dad, ain't it sad

That we're on this road to nowhere

Nowhere, I know

I'm only nine, I'm already feeling the strain

It seems everyone's dying or curling up in pain

Well it's just a loser's game, dad

It's just a loser's game
