One part anger
Two parts heartbreak
Three parts relief
I'm escaping this reality we made
Four parts fear
I've made a terrible mistake but
Only a fool would stay
Got what I paid for
I was chasing the muse
You're gonna get what you paid for
It's time you walked away from me
It's time to choose
How to be
And what to do
How are you gonna be?
What are you gonna do?
I hope you figure it out
So put the record
Put the record on its needle
Go on and turn the TV down
And try to listen
I will listen if I'm able
What was that song about?
'Cause how much longer were we carrying on?
How many more times would we carry you home?
The bar was closing down
You were stumbling out
Sleepwalking drunk
And I only mirrored the pain
Got what I paid for
I was chasing the muse
You're gonna get what you paid for
It's time you walked away from me
It's time to choose
How to be
And what to do
How are you gonna be?
What are you gonna do?
I hope you figure it out
So put the record
Put the record on its needle
Go on and turn the TV down
And try to listen
I will listen if I'm able
What was that song about?
