Blank faces, hopeless dreams Scattered down the boulevard Thank the barren local streets That shatter thoughts of working hard Lonely moms, dying friends, Barefoot children in the dark Play behind a chain-link fence Instead of in the park Fast food & news stations Feed on troubled minds Claiming that the stipulations Are changing with the times These days you can’t wake up Without that cup of Joe Problems all those drugs shake up Most people never know

Riverside Drive
Blank faces, hopeless dreams Scattered down the boulevard Thank the barren local streets That shatter thoughts of working hard Lonely moms, dying friends, Barefoot children in the dark Play behind a chain-link fence Instead of in the park Fast food & news stations Feed on troubled minds Claiming that the stipulations Are changing with the times These days you can’t wake up Without that cup of Joe Problems all those drugs shake up Most people never know
