Yesterdays Headlines Lyrics - Good Riddance

Running short on imagination 

Still we waste it all on words 

Spoken without the benefit of our minds 

The candle burns the edges fray 

Our best intentions waste away 

And everybody loves the things you've done 

And on and on and on 

Life appears weightless 

For everyone but me 

This world grows heavier every day 

Deterioration 

Growing old before my time 

Nobody cares never mind 

We all prey on our vain condition 

And the hopelessness of it all 

These days there's nothing 

We can trust 

The dreams we made we've seen them face 

Trampled by our sad parade 

Yet we're so pleased with what we've done 

And on and on and I'm done 

The mind breaks down when it dies 

Our machines doubled in size 

To orchestrate the grand collapse 

I see us all trapped in its path 

There was a time we were unbound 

As if we're never hit the ground 

But just like rain we can't keep from falling
