Lyrics © Señor Barends

He grew up on the edge of the tracks  
Where the steel rails cry and the pavement cracks  
Held his breath when sirens wailed  
Clutched his bike like it was mail  

He learned real young how to hang on tight
What was yours, you kept, what was wrong, you right
He stood when it made sense to stay
He ran when trouble turned its face his way

They called him the nowhere kid  
Street-smart eyes and a mind that hid  
Read the world in pages and fights  
Spoke low in school, but burned at night  
Knows when to talk, when to swear  
Knows when to vanish like he ain’t there

They sent him off across the town  
To where the teachers wore caps and the floors were sound  
Kids in ties with polished shoes  
Snickered at him like he brought bad news  

They called him geek, they called him stray  
But they never dared stand in his way  
He had his books and bruises both  
A pledge to neither world, no oath

Still the nowhere kid  
Street-wise fists and a mind that slid  
Past the cracks, through the smoke and bells  
Wrote his name in bathroom stalls and shells  
Knows when to fight, when to flee  
Knows when the truth don’t come for free

He ain’t your straight-A pride  
Ain’t your corner brawler ride  
He’s that silence in the room  
He’s the cracked badge and the tune

He’s still the nowhere kid  
Walkin’ lines no one else ever did  
Reads the signs and walks away  
Fights the fight but won’t betray  
Knows when to run, when to stare  
Knows this whole damn world ain’t fair

Nowhere Kid
