Verse 1

I was working shift on the six o'clock, quiet in the pale dawn.

Found a bird caught in the machinery -

set it free and watched it go . . .

Quit the job that very day, and flew into the sky

just following after this aimless desire,

the awful desire, the aimless desire, worthless desire...

Verse 2

Now I've found causes and I've found families,

but nothing ever lasts;

I've known people I'd die for - if only they had asked.

Where I'm from is not my home, and neither's where I'm bound;

Just following after this aimless desire - worthless desire . . .
