Nothing is a sadder sight to me To see a business with empty windows The blue building I pass by every day With the once solid stairs only marked by a paint print The man in the yellow jacket and the American flag shirt Even though America is why he is walking on worn down shoes 320 on moffet, dilapidated apartments & hollow doorways Nothing is a sadder sight to me The blinking open sign that flickers, only welcoming ghosts The boy who gets off the bus stop alone, walking by it without a glance With his back pack strung tiredly over his shoulder The universal feeling of not fitting in still fresh in his memory The field of grass, deserted A cemetery of parts & wheels & headlights & people's once dream machines Nothing is a sadder sight to me The lady who lives on 2nd near the sewer drainer With hoards of stuffed animals waving from inside the windows As she sits under the awning surrounded by them, smoking a cigarette with trembling fingers The girl driving with her hands tightly gripping the steering wheel Grinding her teeth as she watches the people she sees while on the road Blinks slowly, as she knows home is where she is alone But she'd rather see this road side sadness then the blank television screen Nothing is a sadder sight to me And she screams As she crashes into a tree The man in the yellow jacket turns his head The boy's back pack falls to the ground The women leaps up, her plush lifeless friends tumbling around her The building are silent, remorseful Nothing is a sadder sight to see
