You Can’t Get There From Here Lyrics by The Offspring
Well I’m here in your ear to destroy
All that once was so pure
All your hopes and your dreams
Fall apart at the seams, I’ll make sure
‘Cause it may seem very near
But you can’t get there from here
Come see about me
I’m the truth and you know it
Come see about me
I’m the darkest fears
You’re listening to me
‘Cause you can’t get rid of
That feeling when I say “You can’t get there from here”
I won’t let you forget the things if you had only
I’m the voices in your head like the pouring rain
I’ll take it all, but you built this palace of hate
Well to keep you from shining
Your linings of silver I’ll maim
I give you this sendup
You’ll end up down here just the same
And your sun will not rise
A thousand tears in your eyes
Come see about me
I’m the truth and you know it
Come see about me
I’m the darkest fears
You’re listening to me
‘Cause you can’t get rid of
That feeling when I say “You can’t get there from here”
I won’t let you forget the things if you had only
I’m the voices in your head like the pouring rain
I’ll take it all, but you built this palace of hate
I’ve watched as you’ve tried to get by
Write your name on the wall
But you’re rot in your cage as you rage
From a run to a crawl
‘Cause it may seem very near
But you can’t get there from here
Come see about me
I’m the truth and you know it
Come see about me
I’m the darkest fears
You’re listening to me
‘Cause you can’t get rid of
That feeling when I say “You can’t get there from here”
I won’t let you forget the things if you had only
I’m the voices in your head like the pouring rain
I’ll take it all, but you built this palace
I’ll take it all, but you built this palace of pain
You built your palace of pain
You built your palace of pain
