The Story of a Pawn Shop Ring

(Spoken) I was shopping for a new gun just the other day When, out of the blue it hit me what was right there on display For under a pane of glass, there were hundreds of broken dreams And that's made me think: What's the story..... of a pawn shop ring Music intro... Half off hopes Discounted dreams Is what, the sign should read But instead, it said half off All our rings Underneath a pane of glass Broken love for trade with cash And that's the story of a pawn shop ring They're selling carats for pennies On the dollar If you see one you like Feel free to make an offer Each one's been certified By a love turned cold as ice And that's the story of a pawn shop ring I'm guessing they've all been washed.... In teardrops And a few were even given... A fling We're not here to discuss If they're bad luck Yeah that's the story of a pawn shop ring I'm guessing more than most... Hold unmade memories And a few, never even, saw the day A month and a halfs wage For each dream there on display And that's the story, of a pawn shop ring (Spoken) You know I left there that day feeling a little down With no gun in my hand, I lifted my head feeling real proud Just realizing that my woman still cares for me Through all he hell I've put her through Knowing we still have many dreams to come our way But I still wondered How many tried to propose To only hear the word no That's the story of a pawn shop ring For in a glass case Sits loves final resting place And that's the story of a pawn shop ring
