Lyrics

We took our piggie bank

We dismantled our piggy bank

Smashed it against the wall

We broke it forcefully

And how we sank down

We sank emotionally or financially

As we counted it all

We felt the weight of our savings as we counted it


Why should I try?

Questioning the purpose of trying

Why should I care anymore?

Expressing apathy or disillusionment

Why should I pick up brown pennies off the floor?

Questioning the value of picking up insignificant amounts of money


I wanna build it too

Expressing a desire to create something significant

A rocket to space

Wanting to build a rocket for exploration or advancement

Can you feel gravity keeping us down And in place?

Acknowledging gravity's force, keeping things grounded

Why should I try?

Reiteration of questioning the purpose of effort

Why should I care anymore?

Feeling disconnected or indifferent

Why should I pick up brown pennies off the floor?

Reevaluating the worth of minor efforts


In real life I know

Realizing truths in actual life experiences

In real time I know

Understanding in the present moment

That the world feels so good

Perceiving the world positively

And fine

Viewing the world as enjoyable and acceptable

Why should I try?

Reiteration of questioning the purpose of effort

Why should I care anymore?

Continuing to feel disconnected or indifferent

Why should I pick up brown pennies off the floor?

Reevaluating the worth of minor efforts


In real life I know

Realizing truths in actual life experiences

In real time I know

Understanding in the present moment

That the world feels so good

Perceiving the world positively

And fine

Viewing the world as enjoyable and acceptable
