You see I came here for something
I thought was important
So I brought every fear I had grown
I packaged my best dreams
Yes, almost everything
That I could fit in my soul
And when I showed up at your front door,
I didn't know anymore than you
My own shoulders were heavy,
But I'd not let that stop me
When a door opens up you walk through
/ oh /
You know I knew I would find something good
if I only could see in the night
We answered questions with questions,
gave ourselves the impression
That we had seen the light
Then I found out just how right I'd been,
despite all the shit that I'd been so wrong in
I packed up every leftover that I'd let hit the floor
And now I am just pining for more
/ oh /
There's no nickel to my name
There's no long robe on my frame
Yet I'm richer than I was before
Purchasing these good things
Is costing me everything
Praying I can buy more
