(player saying)
It's at times such as this she'd be tempted to spit
If she wasn't so ladylike
She imagines how she might have lived
back when legends and history collide
So she looks to her prince finding he's so charmingly
slumped at her side
Those days are recalled on the gallery wall
And she's waiting for passion or humour to strike
What shall we do, what shall we do with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty
Good Friday arrived, the sky darkened on time
'Til he almost began to negotiate
She held his head like a baby and said "It's okay if you cry"
Now he wants her to dress as if you couldn't guess
He desires to impress his associates
But he's part ugly beast and Hellenic deceased
So she finds that the mixture is hard to deny
(player saying)
She won't practice the looks from the great tragic books
That we

useless desires歌词

[00:23.93]Say goodbye to the old street that never cared much for you anyway
[00:30.24]And the different colored doorways you thought would let you in one day
[00:36.12]Goodbye to the old bus stop frozen and waiting
[00:42.47]The weekend addition has this town over-rated
[01:00.94]You walk across the baseball green
[01:03.70]The grass has turned to straw
[01:06.44]A flock of birds tries to fly away from where you are
[01:12.66]Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend
[01:16.03]I can’t make you stay
[01:19.26]I can’t spend another ten years wishing you would anyway
[01:31.13]How the sky turns to fire
[01:37.13]Against the telephone wire
[01:43.05]And even I’m getting tired of useless desires
[02:08.10]Everyday I take a bitter pill
[02:11.02]It gets me on my way
[02:14.04]For the little aches and pains
[02:16.71]The ones I have from day to day
[02:20.28]To help me think a little less about the things I miss
[02:26.43]To help me not to wonder how I ended up like this
[02:39.22]Walk down to the railroad track and ride a rusty train
[02:44.76]With a million other faces I shoot through the city veins
[02:50.82]Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend
[02:53.99]You wanted to be free
[02:56.85]And somewhere beyond the bitter end is where I wanna be
[03:09.11]How the sky turns to fire
[03:14.99]Against the telephone wire
[03:20.90]And even I’m getting tired of useless desires
[03:58.91]Say goodbye to the old building that never tried to know your name
[04:05.16]Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend
[04:08.37]You won’t be seeing me again
[04:11.17]Goodbye to all the window panes shining in the sun
[04:16.98]Like diamonds on a winter day
[04:20.06]Goodbye, goodbye to everyone
[04:29.30]How the sky turns to fire
[04:35.12]Against the telephone wire
[04:41.25]It burns the last of the day down
[04:47.28]And I’m the last one hanging around waiting
[04:56.98]On a train track and the train never comes back
[05:05.36]And even I’m getting tired of useless desires
