Spent

I note the things warn out and eye the things costly
as I'm sifting through the lost and found
all of these paths that I'm treading softly
lead me around around around

I'm trying to answer a yes or no question
that's requiring all the words in my mouth
my internal compass to find my direction
keeps pointing south south south south south

leaves change colours on my window sill
meanwhile I inside am standing still
oh, but I pay the bill

And I'm spent...
I'm spent...

Check yes or no baby, the page is inviting
but all of my pens have run out of ink
from all of the words I haven't been writing
or had time to think, to think, to think, to think

leaves change colours on my window sill
and my tired eyes, they get their fill
oh, cuz there's time to kill

And I'm spent...
I'm spent...

I've spent all of my time fixing all of my watches and shining them to look new
I've spent all of my money on money collections, to my recollections it's true
I've spent all of my time fixing all of my watches and shining them to look new
I've spent all of my money on money collections, to my recollections it's true

leaves change colours on my window sill
just like they have done over every hill
oh, and they always will

And I'm spent...
I'm spent...
spent...
spent...
