about

That old avenue, it’s haunted
Where we stood awkwardly
In the summer heat
You told me we would never happen
Oh, the words you spoke
I heard them catch in your throat

Another day, another disappointment
My regret spelled out in the cracks in the street
Now I’m wondering what the point was
I should have known this day would end in defeat

Head in my hands at the station
As I wait for a train just to get on
And take me away from here
So long as I don’t have to see you
I could say I won’t miss you but it ain’t true
Take me away from Massachusetts Avenue

Massachusetts, Massachusetts, Avenue

Light a smoke with my shaking hands
Oh, my head it spins
I breathe the nicotine in
As I watch you walk away
Each step reminds me
I’ll never be something you need

The sun goes down on another day
I’m kicking at stones as I wander through the streets
Streetlights flicker orange, but it all seems grey
Oh love, what a fool you have made of me

Head in my hands at the station
As I wait for a train just to get on
And take me away from here
So long as I don’t have to see you
I could say I won’t miss you but it ain’t true
Take me away from Massachusetts Avenue

Massachusetts, Massachusetts, Avenue
