Pennies - Failure

Had a piggy bank

Like a lion’s head

Knocked it off the shelf

Broke down by the bed

Pennies from a skyscraper can kill

I’ve lined up my change

On the window sill

Watched for hours

People down below

The wind has frozen my eyes

Lost the courage

Could not push them off

Pulled my head inside

Let a winter pass

Laying in bed

My coins have all frozen to the window sill

Walked the shadowed streets

In a happy fear

Looking up for change

Shining through the air

Listen up to your hostage

Your brain can’t hold her up

All the people you crossed out

You wake yourself back up

Watched for hours

Buildings fall through clouds

Walked the shadowed streets

In a happy fear

Looking up for change

Shining through the air

Listen up to your conscience

The sky can’t hold it up

All the people you crossed out

Have woke themselves back up

Pennies from a skyscraper can kill
