Pillar to Post

                                  Once I was happy in happy extremes

These bitter tokens are worthless to me



So you appear and say how I've grown

Fill me up with faces I've known

In this light, they're far from divine

I save them up and spend them when I have time



The salted taste of all your tears and woes

Sent me in haste, my melancholy rose

Those tasteless lips were closed

You watched me come, you see me go



Once I was happy in happy extremes

Packing my bags for the path of the free

From pillar to post, I am driven, it seems

These bitter tokens are worthless to me



Just like June, the curtains are closed

The ghost of shame, he sits here and sighs

I love the flames like I've loved the cold

I'll learn to love the life of the 'Could I, Could I, Could I'



So I don't cross my fingers any more

You look for rags and found them at your door

How could you ask for more

Than everything you've heard before?



Once I was happy in happy extremes

Packing my bags for the path of the free

From pillar to post, I am driven, it seems

These bitter tokens are worthless to me



Once I was happy in happy extremes

Packing my bags for the path of the free

From pillar to post, I am driven, it seems

These bitter tokens are worthless to me



Once I was happy in happy extremes

Packing my bags for the path of the free

From pillar to post, I am driven, it seems

These bitter tokens are worthless to me
