Will is broken and I can't get clear
Words that were spoken took a price so dear
Eyes in shadow and they're masked by pain
There goes another fifty dollars down the drain
Hands going crazy and I can't sit still
How many days until I break this spell?
Clear blue sky but it's pouring rain
And there goes another fifty dollars down the drain
Barn burned down now I can see the moon
I'm forgiven in an empty room
In a palace up on Gentry Lane
There goes another fifty dollars down the drain
Hands going crazy and I can't sit still
How many days until I break this spell?
Clear blue sky but it's pouring rain
And there goes another fifty dollars down the drain
Poor man, rich man, fat man, thin
The meal is free if you just sign in
Cheekbone shattered and my soul in chains
There goes another fifty dollars down the drain
