Penniless
I breathe you out like cigarette smoke
But I kept the tar and your taste in my throat
I sleep way too much and my hair's grown quite long
Dug up my tape recorder with all your dead songs
Since I've fallen through your skin
Since I've wasted all that I am, loving you
You left me, you left me, you left me
Penniless
Wasted five years with a penniless heart
You reduced me to loose change in the well at the park
A quick wish later and I'm all alone
Way too damn tired to pick up the damn phone
Since I've fallen through your skin
Since I've wasted all that I am, loving you
You left me, you left me, you left me
How come my roots a hundred feet deep, deep
All of the things you swore I could keep, keep
You must be so proud, you must be so proud
You must be so proud, you must be so proud
So proud, so proud
So proud, so proud
Since I've fallen through your skin
Since I've wasted all that I am, loving you
You left me, you left me, you left me
You left me, you left me, you left me
Penniless
But I kept the tar and your taste in my throat
I sleep way too much and my hair's grown quite long
Dug up my tape recorder with all your dead songs
Since I've fallen through your skin
Since I've wasted all that I am, loving you
You left me, you left me, you left me
Penniless
Wasted five years with a penniless heart
You reduced me to loose change in the well at the park
A quick wish later and I'm all alone
Way too damn tired to pick up the damn phone
Since I've fallen through your skin
Since I've wasted all that I am, loving you
You left me, you left me, you left me
How come my roots a hundred feet deep, deep
All of the things you swore I could keep, keep
You must be so proud, you must be so proud
You must be so proud, you must be so proud
So proud, so proud
So proud, so proud
Since I've fallen through your skin
Since I've wasted all that I am, loving you
You left me, you left me, you left me
You left me, you left me, you left me
Penniless
