Payphone - Commentary

I'm at a payphone trying to call home

All of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone?

Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?

Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember

The people we used to be

It's even harder to picture

That you're not here next to me

You say it's too late to make it

But is it too late to try?

And in our time that you wasted

All of our bridges burned down

I've wasted my nights

You turned out the lights

Now I'm paralyzed

Still stuck in that time, when we called it love

But even the sun sets in paradise

I'm at a payphone, trying to call home

All of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone?

Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?

If "happy ever after" did exist

I would still be holding you like this

All those fairy tales are full of shit

One more fucking love song, I'll be sick, oh

You turned your back on tomorrow

'Cause you forgot yesterday

I gave you my love to borrow

But you just gave it away

You can't expect me to be fine

I don't expect you to care

I know I've said it before

But all of our bridges burned down

I've wasted my nights

You turned out the lights

Now I'm paralyzed

Still stuck in that time

When we called it love

But even the sun sets in paradise

I'm at a payphone trying to call home

All of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone?

Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?

If "happy ever after" did exist

I would still be holding you like this

And all those fairy tales are full of shit

One more fucking love song, I'll be sick

Now I'm at a payphone

Man, fuck that shit

I'll be out spending all this money while you sitting round

Wondering why wasn't you who came up from nothing

Made it from the bottom, now when you see me I'm strutting

And all of my cars start with a push of a button

Telling me the chances I blew up or whatever you call it

Switched the number to my phone so you never could call it

Don't need my name on my show you can tell it I'm ballin'

Swish, what a shame could have got picked

Had a really good game but you missed your last shot

So you talk about who you see at the top

Or what you could have saw, but sad to say it's over for

Phantom pulled valet open doors

Wiz like go away got what you was looking for

Now it's me who they want, so you can go

And take that little piece of shit with you

I'm at a payphone, trying to call home

All of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone?

Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?

If "happy ever after" did exist

I would still be holding you like this

All those fairy tales are full of shit

One more fucking love song, I'll be sick

Now I'm at a payphone
