Paper Quarters

Podcast: 

I've been writing this song over the course of the last few weeks or so, and recently finished it. Please excuse the shoddy mic/guitar playing. I technically only mess up the guitar part once. Or twice. The reason it's called Paper Quarters is because when I finished recording it, I realized that the paper the song was written on had neatly torn itself into quarters when I placed my guitar on it, due to it's being folded in my pocket for at least two weeks. Anyways, hopefully you'll enjoy this.
