Oh, how did it come to this?
Not easy to dismiss
I'm always told, that you've got to cling to hope
Please, tell me how it came to be
Got a california dream
Only to see, that the lights fade easily
No, I'm surrounded by a world of no
Find it hard to breath in slow
In and out, when you're riddled with doubt
Lost a job, and all you got
Is just a mattress on the floor, and not much more
And all you say is babe, we'll buy a house someday
We'll buy a house someday
Weave, in and out of complexities
And shadows of uncertainties
An empty room, and the curtain's closing soon
But you, you always had a way to prove
That we were gonna make it through
Another night, see the morning in a new light
Find a job, make do with what we got
Luck was on the way, the hopeful say
We've got too many scars
And keeping count's like numbering stars
I'm home wherever you are, when all is pulled away
Try so hard to disguise
Tell me everything is alright
The rent's due in a night, no where to go but we can't stay
And all you say is babe, we'll buy a house someday
We'll buy a house someday
We'll buy a house someday
We'll buy a house someday
We'll buy a house someday
