Currency

(Album: Rock Bottom - 2021)

If I had a dollar for the times I said
I've got nothing left to give
I'd be sleeping on piles in a king sized bed
Of the money you owe me

You know you owe me

If I had a backbone I'd stand up
Every time you told me I was not enough
But I spend my days picking pieces up
From how you broke me

You know you broke me

And you trade away what I gave for free
Like love's a currency

If I had a dime for the times I fell
For every lie you told yourself
I'd be spending my fortune on wishing wells
Waiting for what you sold me

'Cause you still owe me

But you trade away what I gave for free
Your love like currency

And it's not a fair trade
The deals that you made
But I have always bought those lines

For all you stole I paid that price

But if I had a dollar for the times I said
I think I'm worth more than this
Well I'd have one dollar to make my bets

I'd put it all on me
I'm finally betting on me

'Cause I can't trade what I gave for free
My love's not currency
