Lyric

Your words came cheap like a thrift store find

I held 'em up to the light

Thought I’d unwind

But the seams came loose

Yeah

The thread’s unkind

Keep the change

I don’t need your spare

Take your nickel promises

I don’t care

Keep the change

Yeah

I’m walking tall

Bought my freedom

Didn’t cost much at all

You tossed out love like it’s loose change in a jar

Thought I’d roll it up

Make a wish on a star

But pennies don’t shine when they’ve fallen too far

Oh

You thought I’d beg

You thought I’d plead

But honey

I’m rich in the things I need

Keep the change

I don’t need your spare

Take your nickel promises

I don’t care

Keep the change

Yeah

I’m walking tall

Bought my freedom

Didn’t cost much at all

I’m not a tip jar for your leftover heart

Don’t drop your dimes and call it art

I’ve got a bank of dreams

And I’ve got the key

So take your change and let me be
