Just a Dream

I gave you a quarter
For a nickel bag of cheap advice
You said my disorder
Was a hopeless search for paradise

And all the while you smiled, you took me in

You said my emotions
Were the cause of all my agonies
You gave me your potions
And I played into your fantasies

And all the while, all the while
All the while you smiled, you took me in

You see I tried and I tried
But still, I'm still not satisfied
I just want everything to be ecstasy for me
And I cried and I cried
‘Til all the tears welled up and dried
And then I prayed that it was just another dream
Just a dream

Dig this, you said
Lie down on the table
Close your eyes and let your mind at ease
One kiss with my needle
And I'll do you like I damn well please

And all the while, all the while
All the while you smiled, you took me in

You see I tried and I tried
But still, I'm still not satisfied
I just want everything to be ecstasy for me
And I cried and I cried
‘Til all the tears welled up and dried
And then I prayed that it was just another dream
Just a dream, it’s just a dream
That’s all it is
It’s just a dream
