Cover art for What Did I Ever Come Here For lyrics by Brandi Carlile

This is such a personal tune. If i were to take a stab at what this is about, i would say it is about missing someone so much its deafening. Daydreaming that you were meant to be and thinking if you could muster the courage to go back and make it work, and that it would be so much better than before - emotionally worn and broken you show up only to realize that you're no longer wanted and you wonder what did i ever come here for?
