Week Eight - Pocket Change
I'm writing, recording, and releasing a song a week for a year. I hope it finds you somewhere along the way :)
lyrics
A lack of communication caused a loss of three day's pay
Today I purchased my lunch in change
On the topic of pocket change, I've been putting a jar full in sleeves
Because I can't afford to lose the fee that a coin star would take
I feel like a god damn deadbeat
Cause I had the money
And I pissed it all away
Now I'm robbing Peter to pay Paul
I feel like a lost cause
You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink
But if he's thirsty enough he will
The question at hand is not why I do this, but when will I stop
I climbed up a mountain and I shot myself in my knees and my feet
A month of bad decisions caused a loss of three week's peace
Today I traded my plans for sleep
It's ironic, the topic of sleep cause it's pushing 4am
And I have a hell of a day on the horizon
I just might be hopeless
Here's my prognosis:
I'm as dumb as the day is long
Peter and Paul kicked my ass
Under God's command
I thought I was being baptized but they just held me down
