Going Nowhere
Access Zero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But the streets are empty
I can't seem to find another road
We all read the sign
And it seems so easy
A new kind of lie
A new kind of show
Lost sight of all the possibilities
It's you or me
We're going nowhere fast
One step away from losing everything
It's you or me
There's no fire inside
Yeah the dream's so empty
We all need to find another road
There's no way I'll sign
Away my will to be
But the cancer tries
To take control
We're going nowhere fast
Lost sight of all the possibilities
It's you or me
We're going nowhere fast
One step away from losing everything
It's you or me
It's all redesigned
Yeah the gears are turning
We're all standing by
To watch the show
There's no way I'll sign
Away my will to be
Yeah, as the cancer dies
We'll take control
"Going Nowhere" is a song by Access Zero that questions the direction in which society is heading. The opening line "the blind lead the blind, but the streets are empty" highlights the paradox of a directionless society that follows those who have no clear path. The lack of inspiration is emphasized as future possibilities are lost. The lyrics then emphasize the need to break free from the norm, to "find another road" and not to "sign away my will to be". However, the presence of the metaphorical "cancer" in this context implies that there are still obstacles to be faced in reaching one's goals.
The chorus, "we're going nowhere fast, lost sight of all the possibilities, it's you or me" is repeated twice and carefully emphasizes the idea of stagnation within society. The line "one step away from losing everything" suggests that pushing forward is the only way to avoid complete failure or losing one's self. The second verse, "there's no fire inside, yeah the dream's so empty" highlights how, when people lack motivation or drive, their dreams wither away. The lyrics call for a shift in perspective, as society continues to create misguided ways of navigating through life, using technology and social media to fill their lives with distractions.
Access Zero's "Going Nowhere" song features thought-provoking lyrics that aim to inspire and motivate listeners to push beyond current limitations. It is about taking back control of life and not settling for mediocrity.
