Nick Kingswell - Money In The Bank Lyrics

I left the city
I wanted isolation
Moved to the country
But I missed the conversation

I took a job there
To save a little money
I filled my room with things to keep from getting lonely

And all these things I have
Man what a drag
Maybe I'd be better off with money in the bank

I went to Paris
To see the Mona Lisa
But I couldn't see through
All the people taking pictures

I am a tourist
I have my phone to prove it
Thousands of pictures
That I'm sure I'll never look at

And I have never been
One to fit in
But here I'm not so different from everyone it seems

I've kept a journal
For twenty years or so
But I keep forgetting
To make entries when I am feeling low

I couldn't have written
Myself a better life
But I'm still not happy
Even though it's only highlights

And you would think by now
I'd have figured out
There's no way to fool myself out of feeling down

With all these things I've kept
Man what a drag
Maybe I'd be better off with money in the bank
Maybe I'd be better off with money in the bank
