Nowhere Now Lyrics
Six feet underground
We move backwards now
At the speed of sound
We are nowhere now
Too much time to kill
Too much wasted air
Too much everything
There's no need to think
Here above the clouds
I am free of all the crowds
And I float above the stars
And I feel the rush of love
Looking down at Earth
It is luminous, observe
We had every chance
But we never learn
We just make it worse
What we don't deserve
The principle of love
Has no meaning here
'Cause if you don't live here
Better get out while you can
Here above the clouds
I am free of all the crowds
And I float above the stars
And I feel the rush of love
Looking down at Earth
It is luminous, observe
Here above the clouds
I am free of all the crowds
And I float above the stars
And I feel the rush of love
Looking down at Earth
It is luminous, observe
Six feet underground
We move backwards now
At the speed of sound
We are nowhere now
We move backwards now
At the speed of sound
We are nowhere now
Too much wasted air
Too much everything
There's no need to think
I am free of all the crowds
And I float above the stars
And I feel the rush of love
It is luminous, observe
But we never learn
We just make it worse
What we don't deserve
Has no meaning here
'Cause if you don't live here
Better get out while you can
I am free of all the crowds
And I float above the stars
And I feel the rush of love
It is luminous, observe
I am free of all the crowds
And I float above the stars
And I feel the rush of love
It is luminous, observe
We move backwards now
At the speed of sound
We are nowhere now

Pretty Straightforward! The world is f***ed up, but there are things worth fighting for, they may seem unlikely or temporary at times(rush of love), but there's still room to have profound experiences like love.
As the album explains living Nowadays imply being all rushed and insensitive, ruining the planet and still having retrograde behavious (like racism, war, twisted religions,ignorance,etc).
Despite all that negativity Steven is surprisingly optimistic and states that even watching earth from outside, from above, even in that bigger scale or picture there's still beauty.
