Streets of Gold

 

I just do what I’m told,

and hope that the words from these pages can save my soul

i just do what I’m told,

so I close my eyes and imagine these streets of gold

 

tell me how you can see

what it is you see

cause maybe then i could believe,

in the in-between

 

I’ve spent all of my life

trying to somehow make sense

of a world I could never explain

I don’t try anymore like I did

I’m just doing the best that i can

 

I just do what I’m told,

the doctors hang over my body while speaking in tongues

I just do what I’m told,

so I let them poison my veins so that I can grow old

 

Well im old enough now I can see

that time doesn’t change a thing

We’re all piecing together a dream

we’ve never seen

 

I’ve spent all of my life

trying to somehow make sense

of a world I could never explain

I don’t try anymore like I did

I’m just doing the best that I can

 

I just do what im told

We just do what were told

 

I’ve spent all of my life

trying to somehow make sense

of a world I could never explain

I don’t try anymore like I did

 

I’ve spent all of my life

trying to somehow make sense

of a world i could never explain

I don’t try anymore like I did

I dont try anymore I once did

I’m just doing the best that I can
