Nowhere Man

Missing image



Lost within the realm of reality
walking down the long lane,
traveling to who knows where
goes the Nowhere Man, it's not sane.

Nowhere Man, let me be
Nowhere Man, look around
Nowhere Man, can't you see
Nowhere Man, you bring death to our town

He fades within the mist of time
no one knows his name,
but where e'er he does go death
follows the Nowhere Man just the same.

Is he the curse that caused the plaque?
Was he the one the called the children away?
Where does this lonely man travel,
for all to call him, the Nowhere Man each day.

Nowhere Man, let me be
Nowhere Man, look around
Nowhere Man, can't you see
Nowhere Man, you bring death to our town

Fading in the fog as ships crash on the shore,
slipping through the tunnel of time,
to appear where e'er he wants.
He's the Nowhere Man, look at the signs.

Nowhere Man, let me be
Nowhere Man, look around
Nowhere Man, can't you see
Nowhere Man, you bring death to our town
