Nowhere
The Gray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Outta Nowhere!
With no sound or warning / Unexpected patterns forming
Nowhere!
Full of Dark and mystery / Ninja swift soon to be history
Nowhere!
Up my blindside creeping / I was watching, never sleeping
But you came outta nowhere / You scared me half to death
You’re all in black and you don’t care
How close you are to running out of breath
Yes you came outta nowhere / From where you shouldn’t be
I wasn’t told you’d be there
So don’t you flip that finger at me
Outta nowhere!
With no lights to signal / visibility abysmal
Nowhere!
Causing interjections / All action and no reflections
Nowhere!
Up my blindside creeping / I was watching, never sleeping
But you came outta nowhere / You scared me half to death
You’re all in black and you don’t care
How close you are to running out of breath
Yes you came outta nowhere / From where you shouldn’t be




I wasn’t told you’d be there
So don’t you flip that finger at me

Line by Line Meaning

World so cold everyday
Everyday life feels harsh and isolating


I feel so alone and far away
Loneliness is a constant presence


Then you came out of nowhere
But then, someone unexpected and wonderful appeared


Came out of nowhere
Unexpected and unanticipated


I ran away, still you pursued
Despite trying to escape, this person continued to show interest


And brought me to you
And finally, they brought me to you


Hold me close 'til I understand
Please, help me process my emotions and thoughts by holding me close


I feel like falling and I reach for your hand
I feel like I'm about to lose control and I need your support


And carried me through
Guided and supported me through rough times


I've been here before, now i'm back in your arms
I've felt safe and cherished before, and now I do again with you


But why would I leave when you kept me from harm
I have no reason to leave, you keep me safe and secure


And you hold me close, so close
And you continue to hold me close, offering your love and support


Came out of nowhere
This person was a complete surprise
