An artificial season
Covered by summer rain.
Losing all my reason
‘Cause there’s nothing left to blame.

Shadows paint the sidewalk -
A living picture in a frame.
See the sea of people -
All their faces look the same.

So I sat down for awhile,
Forcing a smile.
In a state of self-denial -
Is it worthwhile?

Sell my pity for a dime -
     Yeah, Just one dime.
Sell my pity for a dime -
     Yeah, Just one dime.

Plain talk can be the easy way.
Signs of losing my faith -
     Losing my faith.

So I sat down for awhile,
Yeah, forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial.
Yeah, is it worthwhile?
Sell my pity for a dime -
     Yeah, just one dime.
Sell my pity for a dime -
     Yeah, just one dime.

Selling, selling my pity for a dime
     And another man take my soul.

So I sat down for awhile
forcing a smile
in a state of self-denial.
Is it worthwhile?

Sell my pity for a dime
     Yeah, just one dime.
Sell my pity for a dime
     Yeah, just one dime.

Scraping,
