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 a while   Forcing a smile   In a state of self-denial   Is it worthwhile   Sell my pity for a dime   Just one dime   Sell my pity for a dime   Just one dime   Plain talk can be the easy way   Signs of losing my faith   losing my faith   Plain talk can be the easy way   Signs of losing my faith   losing my faith   So I sat down for a while   Forcing a smile   In a state of self-denial   Is it worthwhile   Sell my pity for a dime   Just one dime   Sell my pity for a dime   Just one dime   Sellin, sellin my pity for dime    and another man take my soul   So I sat down for a while   Forcing a smile   In a state of self-denial   Is it worthwhile   Sell my pity for a dime   Just one dime   Sell my pity for a dime   Just one dime   Sellin, sellin my pity for dime    and another man take my soul
