Do you know who you are? Do you ever think about it?
If you were told it's a place, would you drive until you found it?
Would you turn down a street that you know would lead to where you were before?
You call it home, but are you really sure that's your home? Do you know what you want? Have you ever reconsidered
What a trip we are on and it's the only ride we're given?
If you could fly, would you try? Would your feet stay firmly planted on the ground?
Can you explain why the only place you go is to waste? Now you go to work and you work all day
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
You tell some jokes to kill that time
Til the boss comes back and at the stroke of 5
You hit those bars, you have some drinks
You drown in all your long lost dreams
Oh no, you're closer to nowhere Do you know who you love? Can you say those words with feeling?
Or when you look in those eyes, is there someone else you're seeing?
Do you dream of a day you could take the love without running away?
What is it now? Do you need a little space? Or are you wanting out? Now you go to work and you work all day
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
You grab that phone, rehearse those lines
Then you call home sayin' you gotta work tonight
You hit those bars, you buy some drinks
For the first one who looks good and thinks you're coolYou're closer to nowhere... You fake it so well, nobody can tell
You buy what they sell, you're going places... Now you go to work and you work all day
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
You share your plans and you swear you'll quit
Maybe next year or the year after it
You hit those bars, you have some drinks
You take those pills, you go to sleep
You wake up someday all alone
You realize another year is goneYou're closer to nowhere...
Jen Foster is an award-winning singer/songwriter who runs her independent record label, Fosterchild Records, in Nashville, TN. Influenced heavily by classic artists such as the Rolling Stones, U2, and Bob Dylan, Jen has spent a large part of the last 2 years in a Nashville recording studio working on her upcoming third album, "Thirty-Nine". Along with her producer, Greg Droman, Jen put together an all-star group of musicians to perform on the tracks, including Peter Stroud (Sheryl Crow), Rami Jaffee (Foo Fighters, The Wallflowers), Sean Hurley (John Mayer, Vertical Horizon) and Fred Eltringham (The Wallflowers, Dixie Chicks, The Wreckers). The project embodies a blend of sounds which range from soft, lazy-day melodies to more raucous guitar-driven tracks. Some of these new songs have already garnered Jen national attention: the single "Closer to Nowhere" recently won first place in the International Songwriting Competition (Triple A category) and the accompanying music video for the song hit 1 for several weeks on the LOGO network. In addition, Jen's original song, "Venice Beach", was recently a finalist in the 2008 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, as well as in the New York Songwriter's Circle. Previously, Jen has also secured some impressive Film/TV placements, with songs placed in the popular television soap opera "All My Children" as well as a recent placement in an "American Pie" movie sequel.
