I Know What I’m Here For

What a life, a trick of light
Then everything returns to the sea
You can have whatever you want
But are you disciplined enough to be free?

Turning love into a chore
Promises come cheap, dear reader
Another page, another door
Follow, follow me

I know what I'm here for
Hanging on through late December
I know what I'm here for
Follow, follow me
Follow me

Moving on, I don't belong
My life turned into a mall
Every line is in the song
Follow me out of the fall

What an actor, what a show
Just going through some holy motions
The band is sharp, but the singer's slow
Everything must go

I know what I'm here for
Hanging on through late December
I know what I'm here for
Follow, follow me
Follow me

Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me

Souvenirs, polygraph tests
Photographs fresh from the wreck
What a poster saint he'll make
In one take, one take

I know what I'm here for
Hanging on through late December
I know what I'm here for
Follow, follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
Follow me
