Candid Bandit - 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 no 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 with my brother on the sidewalk
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
