Spent

(album: Those Who Wait - 2012)

Empty out the cash
Count what you have left
Take from me all that you can get
And leave me here in debt

I never gave to be repaid
When I thought my love was safe

But see me now, I've nothing left to give you
You broke the bank, and broke a heart in two
The time to say you're sorry came and went
You say you'll pay me back, plus the rent
But I think you're spent

So you can keep the change
Although my pockets are empty (You should know)
It's not the money that I miss, no
Cause that's not what I paid with

(But, I guess we're bound by…)
Unspoken rules
You'll never read
In love there is (You never get something for nothing)
No selfless deed (Cause nobody does nothing for free)
We spend emotion
It's a currency that we burn
To get love in return

But see me now, I've nothing left to give you
You broke the bank, and broke a heart in two
The time to say you're sorry came and went
You say you'll pay me back, plus the rent
But I think you're spent

I think we're spent
The sharing straws, and films we saw
I gave it all, but no more
Investment made but no remains
And not single penny saved
Not a single penny
