Nothing Can NIKI Lyrics
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 soaring a kite
And you blink
And there goes another night
You call your sweetie
When you can
A minute in and it’s bitter
Again
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
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
No one and nothing can
We’re hostages to the hour and the minute hands
Workin’ overtime just to freeze them
‘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
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
(Ooh) No one and nothing can
(Ooh) No one and nothing can
(Ooh) No one and nothing can
