All That You Paid For Lyrics

Sounds and rhythms arranged in time
Bands carry a concept, then leave it behind
Day after day, a whirlwind of nothing
Synthetic feelings dull me to death
Kids gag for meaning, bands can't confess
Shallow hearts echo hollow minds

What's gonna save you
When music can't buy you
All that you paid for

Entertainment is petty when it's an everyday duty
This mecca's a myth but still somehow moves me
Cluttered ideals tug war with cheap thrills
I spill my guts because I still got them
I guess it's easier to stay stupid

What's gonna save you
When music can't buy you
All that you paid for

All that you paid for is a little bit of lifestyle
Not a way of life
It doesn't matter how you think the music makes you
You're still the same
All that you paid for is a little bit of lifestyle
Not a way of life
How many times did you wait in line to be fooled again?

What's gonna save you
When music can't buy you
All that you paid for
