This song has been in the cue since 2006. I've always loved the intro guitar line and the alterations of it throughout the song. I also loved layering the different instrument rhythms in the chorus - drum vs. bass. Lian wrote the beautiful chorus melody. -Burke
lyrics
Nowhere Sister
V1-
She plays off
every single angle
sleeping with the businessmen
She gave us
a solo or a spotlight
ever loathing glitter girl
pre-
honestly
I'm Holding out Holding out
I wait for the swingaround
Tell me how Tell me how
To keep you from spinning
out there Nowhere girl
v2-
Tears and Time
Cast me in your damage
Write behind the walls you've built
Poor lost youth
Amplify the drama
Drain revenge on mothers guilt
pre-
Honestly
Bridge-
Reign down from the sky
Sheltered in your new religion
Racing your whole life
Nowhere
will your reach for me?
I'm going now going now
no wait for the the turnaround
Let me down Let me down
Go, move on and push me out there
sister
out there
sister
out there
where's my nowhere girl?
