Lyrics The Offspring – Takes Me Nowhere

When the day begins
All the guilt sinks in
And I look on the wreckage of the night
Though I try to break free

All the friends I’ve lost
And the pain I’ve caused
Have never been enough just to make me stop
The lines I draw to look at myself
Are turning into somebody else

I know how this will end
But I’m starting up again
Turned around, inside out
Cause this way

Takes me nowhere I can’t can’t see a way out
Takes me nowhere I can’t can’t see a way out
Takes me nowhere I can’t can’t see a way out
It beats me up

When I go there I know I could start again
When I go there Oh no, here we go again
Takes me nowhere Oh no, here we go again
It beats me up

Open on this scene
A familiar dream
Of you telling me what I already know
Though the truth seems near
You can’t get there from here
But you sure know where you’re gonna go

As the rumor wind blows

I know how this will end
But I’m starting up again
Turned around, inside out
Cause this way

But today, if I change
And stop digging my own grave
I will try, to set things right
Cause this way
