Debit Heartstrings

(ahhhh) (hmmmmm) I built a castle

on a promise in the clay

Thought I could sweep the heavy reckoning away

But every morning brings a bill I cannot pay (hmm)

And the interest keeps on climbing to the sky

I'm running out of truth,

running out of time

I owe too much to the shadow on the floor

I owe too much,

can't keep tracking up the score

Every ledger line is knocking at my door

(oh,

I owe too much)

I traded hours

for a silver-plated ring

But in the winter cold it didn't mean a thing

Now I'm the collector of the songs I cannot sing

I owe too much to the shadow on the floor

I owe too much,

can't keep tracking up the score

Every ledger line is knocking at my door

(yeah, I owe too much)

Just a debt in the dirt...

Owe too much...
