Hope is the thing I'm feeling today.
Walking a mile out of the way,
I still might make it through.
Turn on your street and see a car.
One where I thought mine should be parked.
Finding our home a house of pain.
See in an instant things can change, and never feel the same.
Turn on your street and see a car.
One where I thought mine should be parked.
If that's what you demand, then that's what I'll deliver.
If that's what you demand, then that's just what I'll give you.
Trenches dug out the side of the road.
Remember the smell of earth in piles.
And there was nothing else to do but walk for miles, so I walked for miles.
If that's what you demand, then that's what I'll deliver.
If that's what you demand, then that's just what I'll give you.
Turn on your street and see a car.
Someone I thought was a friend to me has ripped a hole in my life.
Someone I thought was a friend to me has gone and married my wife.
If that's what you demand, then that's what I'll deliver.
If that's what you demand, then that's just what I'll give you.
If that's your master plan, then I wish you two the best together.

    @ the brainwashed emeraldpersonwhatserface:

    'giving god everything'

    really now? the song is literally about a friend stealing his wife. where the hell does giving yourself to any sort of god come into this?

    unless you found jesus in bed with your wife, that makes absolutely no sense, emeraldthingo.

    see, this is why people with no sense of direction or free spirit invented gods. - they don't understand a word of anything that goes on around their life, and use a fictional invisible man in the sky to solve all their problems. good god..
