Nowhere On Time

you think how did I get here, where did I go wrong, worked hard
amassed a fortune, got drunk, sold it for a song
now you’re livin’ in the moment but you ain’t gettin’ nothing back
finally made it to the bar car, when your train it left the tracks

now your wife she don’t listen, so now you don’t have much to say
not that you lied but to hear her side it sounds the other way
but I’m not taking sides, this alliance don’t come easy
you’re both good to the core and so much more
but the claws come out when you’re leaving

you see the other men look at her, you imagine what they’re thinking
she left the nest dressed to impress, and since then she’s been drinking
and you tell yourself but you’re not convinced, without you she’s ok
you want to leave just walk on out but your head gets in the way
so you turn around sit back down try not to slip any lower
the look in her eyes you don’t recognize
and you feel like you hardly know her

well the future is an open road, but it’s not the road you’re on
where you’re at it’s not that bad but it’s not where you belong
you can make it to another day if you just get past the moment
it don’t feel right to live this tight, just trying not to blow it

if you keep between the lines, you get nowhere on time
might already be there, you might be going nowhere
