Pennies & Pins
I cry for the life that I had
When I didn't know any better
And I cry for things that I've lost
In storms that I thought I could weather
Buttons and string
Pennies and pins
The things that I keep just in case
'Cuz I never know what I might need
So I save everything to be safe
So if I'm paranoid
You know why
'Cuz I never can let go and so I cry
I cry for the hearts that I broke
When I didn't care to be careful
And all the easy ways out that I took
When I couldn't admit it was my fault
Buttons and string
Pennies and pins
The things that I should throw away
But I'd be remiss if I dared to risk it
'Cuz what if I'll need 'em some day?
So if I'm paranoid
You know why
'Cuz I never can let go and so I cry
I wander 'round the city
And I cry until I'm tired
'Cuz nobody pays attention unless you're begging for direction
But I'm stubborn and too shy
I can't ask for what I need
So I'll keep dreaming of the freedom that comes with apathy
When I didn't know any better
And I cry for things that I've lost
In storms that I thought I could weather
Buttons and string
Pennies and pins
The things that I keep just in case
'Cuz I never know what I might need
So I save everything to be safe
So if I'm paranoid
You know why
'Cuz I never can let go and so I cry
I cry for the hearts that I broke
When I didn't care to be careful
And all the easy ways out that I took
When I couldn't admit it was my fault
Buttons and string
Pennies and pins
The things that I should throw away
But I'd be remiss if I dared to risk it
'Cuz what if I'll need 'em some day?
So if I'm paranoid
You know why
'Cuz I never can let go and so I cry
I wander 'round the city
And I cry until I'm tired
'Cuz nobody pays attention unless you're begging for direction
But I'm stubborn and too shy
I can't ask for what I need
So I'll keep dreaming of the freedom that comes with apathy
