The excitement surrounding The Brocks is palpable, and exists for good reason. Their music pulsates with tense, modulated dance-beats, casting them in electronic colors that still manage to evoke authentic emotion. Their live shows feature intense light work, a shifting lineup of instrumentation and processed sounds, and a rocking presentation, all of which works to create an unforgettable experience. The lineup includes Dane Brock (lead singer/bass), Christian Darais (drummer/programmer), Morgan Ence (guitar/harmonies), and Ryan King (keys/harmonies).
Provo, Utah is home to such successful musical acts as Imagine Dragons and Neon Trees, and tends to produce high-gloss acts with the mix of business savvy, polished presentation, and professionalism that gain traction in a highly competitive and saturated music marketplace. It is this strong combination of musicality and self-promotion that makes The Brocks a must-see.
Going Nowhere
The Brocks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That these long miles almost won
And it's okay
If you don't mean to love me all the way
'Cause now again I mean to run
Hold (?)
While the pain is sleeping
But my spirit was listening
I won't let you break my heart
I won't let you fall (?)
Don't leave me now, don't leave me now
I want to her you say
We're going nowhere
I tell the (?) to every single finger
If you remind me where you have been
Then I would brave
The coldest (?) save so
A thousand fights, you never win
Give me with the (?)
With the demons held inside
Give me time to write the words to say
Give me time to write the words to say
I won't let you break my heart
I won't let you fall (?)
Don't leave me now, don't leave me now
I want to her you say
We're going nowhere
We're going nowhere
We're going nowhere
Going nowhere
It's now i'm feeling
He-e-ey, he-e-ey
I won't let you break my heart
I won't let you fall (?)
Don't leave me now, don't leave me now
I want to her you say
We're going nowhere
Going nowhere-where
Going nowhere
Going nowhere-where
Going nowhere
The Brocks's song Going Nowhere refers to a relationship that isn't going anywhere. The first lyrics "I took it all upon my eager shoulder, that these long miles almost won" suggests that the singer had put a lot of effort into keeping the relationship going but it still didn't work out. Despite this effort, the singer is okay with not being loved completely, perhaps suggesting that they are settling for less than they deserve. The line "now again I mean to run" implies that this is a cycle, that the singer has been here before and has decided to leave once again.
The chorus "I won't let you break my heart, I won't let you fall" is an act of self-preservation. The singer doesn't want to be hurt anymore and is trying to protect themselves from further pain. The line "we're going nowhere" is repeated throughout the song, as if to emphasize the stagnant nature of the relationship. The lines "give me time to write the words to say" suggests that the singer is struggling to communicate their feelings, perhaps due to fear of being vulnerable and getting hurt.
Overall, the song reflects the struggle and pain of a relationship that isn't going anywhere, with a sense of longing for something more but also with a fear of being hurt.
