Soul For Sale Lyrics

I've been robbing Peter blind

I've been paying Paul

Sang my penance prayed my due still the debt collector calls

Could you lend a dollar friend?

Would you spare a dime?

Might you have a moment? I'm living on borrowed time

I sold my soul for less than half

Of what it's worth I don't want it back

Stitched and sewn this shattered heart

And cashed it out for change

At night I cry and holler for pennies on the dollar

If you can hear me you can own that piece of mind I've sold

Spend a few cents for my thoughts

Pray the values worth the cost

The price you've paid is fair when weighed in weight of precious gold

Tore my teeth right to the skin

Gnawing through this wall within

That contains my slightly fractured fragile self inside

Traded in all of my dreams

For the minimum wage of reality

I've bargained with the banker but I've borrowed all I can

Now I'll pawn off my rich breath

Exchange it for a poor man's death

Instead of suffocating

Under supply and demand

At night I cry and holler for pennies on the dollar

If you can hear me you can own that piece of mind I've sold

Spend a few cents for my thoughts

Pray the values worth the cost

The price you've paid is fair when weighed in weight of precious gold
