I Know What I'm Here For Lyrics
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
Moving on
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
Going through some holy motions
The bands are sharp but the singers slow
Everything must go
I know what I'm here for
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
Follow, follow me
A trick of light
Then everything returns to the sea
You can have whatever you want
But are you disciplined enough to be free
Promises come cheap dear reader
Another page, another door
Follow, follow me
Hanging on through late December
I know what I'm here for
Follow, follow me
Don't belong
My life turned into a mall
Every line is in the song
Follow me out of the fall
Going through some holy motions
The bands are sharp but the singers slow
Everything must go
Photographs fresh from the wreck
What a poster saint he'll make
In one take, one take
Follow, follow me

great song im guessing its about him finaly realising why hes here any ideas from any of you?
I think its about not knowing why were here, and just following the masses. The chorus is sarcastic.
