Nomad Lyrics

Los Angeles leaves me uneasy

Squeezing out my patience as it pleases

Squeezing out the pomegranate seeds from the trees in our backyard

This city is a graveyard of reason

Hills and lights and cameras but very little action

Scenes on TV, but it's all just another distraction

From the destruction, starstruck in the spotlight

It's no bark and all bite

It's not bark and all bite

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

Something changed or I grew up or both

I swear, it wasn't always like this, was it?

It gets the best of me, but I can't be my best in that city

And the smog never gets any clearer, does it?

Selling pomegranates on the sidewalk with my brother

Like we're running a lemonade stand

Standing on the curb like pomegranate juice is running down my fingers

And not your blood on my hands

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

Pomegranates, goddamnit

God didn't plan this

I can't stand this anymore

Pomegranates, goddamnit

God didn't plan this

I can't stand this anymore

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

I'm going nowhere

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere

I said I'm going nowhere

Oh, I'm a nomad

Going nowhere
