'Burnt Baby Hands' by Ravyn LaRue


I burnt myself bad when I tried taking more that I deserve.
I remember that awful burn of independence.
But by all good reason I should be feeling it on a daily basis.
Maybe this is because I'm trying to save my lucky pennies.
Since they aren't even my own.
I'll get a deep red scar from this I'm sure.
And the spoils of my venture aren't nearly worth this.
But live and learn, I suppose.
And at least I try feigning self-sufficiency.
