Evan Honer - Nowhere Fast (Live)

the people at country night are incredible huge thanks to them! the amazing Julia and Shane joinin me on this jawn

I go to church just to go, the pastor's talking
But I don't know what he's saying
'Cause my mind is going in different places
My voice is shot from screaming lyrics no one cares to hear
Followed by an applause from a crowd so insincere
And I'll check the boxes that you need
I'll cut my hair, get my degree
Have it all figured out by twenty-three
And if I slip up, will the world come on crashing down?
Or will my momma's friends gossip to everyone in town?
They're saying, "That boy's going nowhere fast
He can't get his head out his ass
He's chasing the devil, he's too high to realize this pipe dream
It ain't gonna last"
Well, the voices just get so damn loud
But I'm steady drowning it out
If you're wondering where I'm at
You'll be happy to know that I'm going nowhere fast
I'll keep you close until you gotta leave, then I'll write a song
'Cause everything I learned from love told me doesn't last that long
And I'll rearrange my plans to follow what's on your agenda
And under-stay my welcome
'Cause I thought it would prevent an unwanted conversation
From a family friend on Christmas
Well, I'm lying to their faces and they pretend that want to listen
Saying, "That boy's going nowhere fast
He can't get his head out his ass
He's chasing the devil, he's too high to realize this pipe dream
It ain't gonna last"
Well, the voices just get so damn loud
But I'm steady drowning it out
If you're wondering where I'm at
You'll be happy to know that I'm going nowhere fast
Yeah, I'm going nowhere
Can hardly breathe in these crowded spaces
Exposing my brain to relate to strangers
Feeding myself a lie, but I'm not sure if I care at all
Can feel the anger of a wanna be somebody
Told me that it's probably safer just to let it be
But I ain't you and this feeling can't dissolve
And he said, "That boy's going nowhere fast
He can't get his head out his ass
He's chasing the devil, he's too high to realize this pipe dream
It ain't gonna last"
Well, the voices just get so damn loud
But I'm steady drowning it out
If you're wondering where I'm at
You'll be happy to know that I'm going nowhere fast
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, I'm going nowhere fast

'That was good'.
Understatement. That was fantastic. The song gets better with every iteration of it I hear.

Speaks the truth about how much pressure there is on a young man to grow up fast and have it all figured out by the time they get to their early 20's

The whole new album is amazing, I’ve been listening to it on repeat. Thank you so much, your music has a positive impact on the world. I really hope to see you live once you do a European tour. Take care. ❤

Evan scratches that same spot in my brain that Bryan and Childers do which is saying something ❤

[berettayaheada]

Please come to Jacksonville Florida Evan! I’ve been listening since the beginning of your musical journey, and your words have helped me not feel alone through my life’s journey. When I feel like I don’t want to be here anymore, I listen to you. You’ve helped me so much more than I can say. Especially this song. It’s literally my life story. Thank you for everything dude.

Man, how stoked am I to see you're going to be back at Last Concert again. Hell yes, can't wait!

Just saw you guys in Charleston, SC. I had never heard of you, but I went with my daughter. My daughter is going to graduate school in Charleston and I flew down to stay with her for a week. My daughter wanted to stand up by the stage and since I had been up since 3:00 am to catch my flight to Charleston I was bushed. I was sitting in a chair by the pit. Some other fans asked me if I was Evan's mom. LOL You guys were fantastic. Thank you for a great concert! I am now a fan for as long as you play. I wish the best for you all! Love-Michigan

[NeoTemplar]

Only negative thing I have to say is it ended too early. I loved this version. You guys are such great musicians.

[radiogal]

My grandson is seeing you right in Deep Ellum! You caught up with him singing IDK SHIT ABOUT CARS, and he can sing this one too at 11 years old. He has a set of pipes! Enjoy, love your music!
