Useless Desires

<br>Say goodbye to the old street that never cared much for you anyway<br>And the different colored doorways you thought would let you in one day<br>Goodbye to the old bus stop frozen and waiting<br>The weekend addition has this town over-rated<br>You walk across the baseball green <br>The grass has turned to straw<br>A flock of birds tries to fly away from where you are<br>Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend<br>I can`t make you stay<br>I can`t spend another ten years wishing you would anyway<br><br>CHORUS<br>How the sky turns to fire <br>Against the telephone wire<br>And even I`m getting tired of useless desires<br><br>Everyday I take a bitter pill<br>It gets me on my way <br>For the little aches and pains<br>The ones I have from day to day<br>To help me think a little less about the things I miss<br>To help me not to wonder how I ended up like this<br>Walk down to the railroad track and ride a rusty train<br>With a million other faces I shoot through the city veins<br>Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend<br>You wanted to be free<br>And somewhere beyond the bitter end is where I wanna be<br><br>CHORUS<br><br>Say goodbye to the old building that never tried to know your name<br>Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend <br>You won`t be seeing me again<br>Goodbye to all the window panes shining in the sun <br>Like diamonds on a winter day<br>Goodbye, goodbye to everyone<br><br>How the sky turns to fire<br>Against the telephone wire<br>It burns the last of the day down<br>And I`m the last one hanging around waiting<br>On a train track and the train never comes back<br>And even I`m getting tired of useless desires
