(Words and Music by Doug Hoekstra)

This is my deliverance and my curse
Makes me feel better and worse
There’s nothin’ I can do about it

Give me the eyes of a child
Make me see what is worthwhile
What can I do about it?

Everybody bankrupt on my street
Goin’ bankrupt as we speak
Please deliver me…
 
This is a dark and lonely road
Sometimes I see myself explode
 
All along I’ve been resisting
All these changes still persisting
 
Everybody bankrupt on my street
Goin’ bankrupt as we speak
Please deliver me…
 
What did I do to deserve this beautiful night?
Let me rediscover what I need to find
Before I’m bankrupt
 
The best intentions goin’ wrong
Takin’ money for a song
What can I do about it?
 
They dealt me in a long time ago
Cards to the chest I didn’t fold
There’s somethin’ I can do about it
 
Everybody bankrupt on my street
Goin’ bankrupt as we speak
Please deliver me…
 
What did I do to deserve this wonderful ride?
Let me rediscover what is deep inside
Before I’m bankrupt…
