Road to Nowhere
Lo.Renzo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I raced out of bed. Out the door, I'm in a hurry
To find and tell you I’m sorry for everything I said
I'm all over town. I can’t slow down
I took a right on Main Street. I drove around all day
Looking for the road to nowhere
'Cause that’s where she said she’s gonna stay
You know it keeps me hanging on
When you said that you were leaving, I never did believe it
The fact is now you’re gone. I'm leaving town yeah
There’s no turning round. I'm gonna find her
I took a plane out of Houston, I missed my bus in LA
Looking for the road to nowhere
Cause that’s where she said she's gonna stay
I took a train out of Tulsa, wound up in San Francisco Bay
Hoping to find the road to nowhere
'Cause that’s where she said she's gonna stay
I took a plane out of Houston, I missed my bus in LA
Looking for the road to nowhere
'Cause that’s where she said she's gonna stay
I rushed in New York City, walked down to New Orleans
And I can’t find the road to nowhere
So I guess that’s where she's gonna stay
The song “Road to Nowhere” by Lo.Renzo is a song that tells a story of a person who is trying to locate their lover, who they wronged and is now staying in a place that they call “nowhere”. The song has a fast-paced, upbeat and catchy rhythm, which is suitable for the story that the artist wants to tell. In the beginning verse, the artist wakes up early in the morning with the determination to find his lover and apologize for his mistakes. He starts driving around town at a fast pace, looking for Main Street, where he believes he will find his lover.
The lyrics of the song suggest that time is of the essence, and he needs to find his lover as soon as possible, and he’s doing everything he can to locate her. Even though he’s running out of luck, he still holds onto hope, which is what keeps him going. When he realizes that he can’t find her where he thought she would be, he takes drastic measures and takes a plane and other means of transport to go to different cities and states to search for her. The chorus of the song emphasizes his desperation to find “the road to nowhere” where he believes his lover is staying.
“Road to Nowhere” is a song that depicts how hard it is to lose someone we love and how difficult it is to move forward when we don’t know where they are or how to find them. It’s a song that emphasizes the importance of communication and the need to take responsibility for our actions.
