NOT WORTH A DIME

You promised her mountains built castles in the sand But kept a one-way ticket hidden in your hand She believed in "us" kept the home fire bright While you were checking balances in the middle of the night You found her — the one with the zeros in the bank And betrayed the only soul that was honest and frank You think you’re a player? Nah you’re just for sale Traded real love for a hollow golden jail The masks are falling revealing your empty ghost You traded her for the thing you wanted the most But in this deal you’re the one who’s losing ground With a rotten heart and a soul that can't be found Your words ain’t worth a dime! You sold your spirit just to climb You left the one who kept you warm in the frost For the sake of money look at what you’ve lost Your words ain’t worth a dime! Trading a life for a counterfeit prime She’s crying at night while you’re in a five-star suite But are you really happy in that cold expensive sheet? You bought the status the watch and the frame But the guilt under your skin is calling your name That new girl don’t love you — she just owns the lease Your heart’s turning to stone piece by piece You traded loyalty for a stack of green paper Now your legacy is nothing but a fading vapor Was it worth it? The silence and the shame? To have a hollow fortune and a broken name You can’t buy back the time you can’t buy back her trust Everything you built is turning into dust Your words ain’t worth a dime! You sold your spirit just to climb You left the one who kept you warm in the frost For the sake of money look at what you’ve lost! Not worth a dime Go enjoy your cage
