Pocket Change
Lennex Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The walls are
Awfully white
Awfully bright today
Round and round the same old town
Countless ways

Nothings changed
Tonight's the night
That we launch our fight
At this pointless tour known as life
And in the end maybe we will mend, but until then

Nothings changed

Nothings changed

You see me talking to myself
You think I'm talking for my health
But no I'm talking for my wealth
I having visions of the truth
Strange understandings of my youth
You see me looking at the sun
I'm looking for the one
The only answer to this quest
That I'm on today

But nothings changed





Pocket change

However, until then, nothing has changed.

The wealth here does not signify financial possession, but the richness of knowledge and profound understanding.

They are looking for answers to life's questions, represented through their gaze at the sun.


Overall, the song "Pocket Change" is a commentary on the human condition. It highlights how people often find themselves stuck in a rut and the struggle to break free from it. It encourages listeners to think deeply about their own lives and question everything to find their purpose and meaning.
