On the Other Side of Nowhere

On the other side of nowhere
Between yesterday and the dawn
When darkness fills a person’s soul
And their demons drag them down
A bottomless pit awaits false step
With no way forward no way back
But one must still go on
For nowhere is no place to be
Because the postal code is wrong
If false courage is the only kind
Well it will have to do
Drink deep another glass of wine
If it will help you through

There is no moon and no stars
No light of coming dawn
There is just you and you alone
So you must save yourself
Step back from the black abyss
Find some other place to be
Because the other side of nowhere
Is no place for you or me

On the other side of nowhere
When the love you had is lost
And there is only dark despair
When all friends have deserted you
And you no longer care.
Do not let your anger eat you up
Or tarnish your shining soul
For the sun still shines, the soft rain falls
Come back from where you are
Leave your demons there to dance alone
On the other side of nowhere
