Niki Nothing Can
[Verse 1]
You go to someone's after's thing
An hour in and the floor's disgusting
And the room is a sailboat in a storm
But a new friend's a soaring kite
And you blink
And they're closin' up the night
You call your sweetie
When you can
A minute in and it's bitter
Again
[Pre-Chorus]
And what's unsaid feel like concrete slabs
Hailin' down from the sky so fast
'Til you hang up
And you're not sure if you wanna cry or laugh
[Chorus]
And you look around your bedroom
You're all alone again
No one will ever save you
No one and nothing can
But you still smile at a stranger
And you still make your weekend plans
No one will ever save you
No one and nothing can
[Post-Chorus]
No one and nothing can
[Verse 2]
We're hostages to the hour and the minute hands
Workin' over a town just to freeze there
'Cause sitting alone with yourself
Is burning a light
So you blast speakers on a drive
Never knowin' if the notes will either douse or fan the fire
[Chorus]
And now I'm pacin' around my dressing room
Lookin' in the mirror long again
No one will ever save you, girl (No one will ever save you, girl)
No one and nothing can
But you'll still write another song
And you'll still get breakfast with the band
No one will ever save you, girl (No one will ever save you)
No one and nothing can
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh) No one and nothing can
(Ooh) No one and nothing can
(Ooh) No one and nothing can
