“Everywhere but On” is a song recorded by American country music singer Matt Stell. It is the second single from his 2019 EP Everywhere but On.
“But I’ve been from Savannah to Long Beach
Tryna keep your memory out of reach
But there you were in the Delta nights
The Santa Fe sun, the Colorado sky
I could add another push pin to the map
But that don’t stop me from missin’ you or lookin’ back
Guess there’s just one place I haven’t gone
I’ve moved everywhere but on”
Stell wrote the song with Lance Miller and Paul Sikes. The song is about a man who is attempting to get through a breakup; according to Stell, he was going through a breakup while writing the song. According to Stell, the idea came when Sikes presented the title lyric “I’ve moved everywhere but on”, after which the three writers decided to build around the title lyric. Stell describes the song as “super personal” because he included details from his own relationship in it. People described the song as “express[ing] how difficult it is to move on”.
