The Music: Lyrics & Lead Sheets: Don No One

-- Lyrics: John McGaraghan
-- Music: John McGaraghan

Intro / Coda:
He asked me "where are you going?"
and "have you no load?"
I answered "nowhere in particular,"
"but I can't seem to find the right road"
He said "I'm cursed you know with that same affliction"
"and it's the worst thing i know."
"So why don't we stick together,"
"and we'll be together to nowhere wherever we go."

Verse 1:
He is Don No One, he's nobody's father
he fills himself with his empty ways
he is everywhere
always

Verse 2:
No One is calm and he is quiet tonight
he is silent, waiting, wanting to say something
nobody's silent plea meets a wall of silent
silent suffering

Verse 3:
Don No One is terrified he will cease to exist
he tries sometimes to be somebody in vain
but he disappears again into the limbo
from whence he came

Verse 4:
Nobody is the emptiness we never fill
an omission ever present, another void not worth touching
We created no one by denying someone and now, we are nothing

Verse 5:
If we are all nobody then none of us exists
nobody's shadow spreading out and choking field and fen
and the silence
comes back to rule again

Coda:
together to nowhere wherever we go
together to nowhere wherever we go
together to nowhere wherever we go
