Aimless Desire Songtext
von New Model Army

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 worthless desire
The awful desire
This aimless desire


Now I've found causes and I′ve found families
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
The awful desire
The worthless desire
The aimless desire

So tonight beneath the bridge where the fires burn
God, take the freedom back
Deliver me
From this aimless desire
The worthless desire
The aimless desire

And chimera she waits, and I have still got this hole in me
Still got this hole in me
Still got this hole inside of me
