No More Pennies

(album: Devour You - 2019)

I found a silver quarter in my pocket
I picked it up and then I lost it
Walked down checking every crack in the road
Instead, I found a golden rose

I jumped at you and then I lost it
No more pennies to fill my pockets
Buttered hands couldn't try to drop this
This kind of love, no feeling like it
But then I dropped it

I thought I finally found a friend
Who'd put up with me until the end
Dumb and bored, I tried to stop it
And stuck a knife inside a socket

Stuck inside this useless rocket
Going nowhere, but I can't stop it
I can't believe I went and dropped it
This kind of love, no feeling like it
But then I dropped it

I thought I'd send you some dead roses
No more pennies to fill my pockets
The kind of stuff you wouldn't notice
No more pennies to fill my pockets
Acting tough and striking poses
No more pennies to fill my pockets
Sit at home, I feel damn hopeless
No more pennies, I can't stop it

Stuck inside this little rocket
Floating nowhere, I can't stop it
'Cause I dropped it
