When you had everything In a hypothetical sense, you had nothing. But when you had nothing well in a literal sense you have everything The only things you ever lost Were all the things you ever sold You set the price But somehow you paid it as well Yet, even after you pay the toll it still takes a toll Every time you add to your pile It subtracts some to form another So to gain is too lose But to lose is to gain in some sort of the sense Even if all you have is cents.
