 I'm a thousand  miles from nowhere
 Time don't matter to me
 'Cause I'm a thousand  miles from nowhere
 And there's no  place I wanna be
 I got heartaches in my pocket
 I got echoes in my head
 And all that I keep hearing
 Are the cruel, cruel things that you said
 I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
 Time don't matter to me
 'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
 And there's no place I wanna be
 
Oh I, oh I, oh I------I, I---I...
 Oh I...
 I've got bruises on my memories
 I've got tearstains on my hands
 And in the mirror there's a vision
 Of what used to be a man
 I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
 Time don't matter to me
 'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
 And there's no place I wanna be
 I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
 Time don't matter to me
 'Cause I'm a thousand miles from nowhere
 And there's no place I wanna be
