"Paying Off The Happiness" lyrics

"Paying Off The Happiness"

The zipper's broken on my favorite hoodie
At twenty-four I'm somehow making rookie mistakes
Like, just the other day I asked, "Could we kick it?"
You looked away and kept your answer encrypted

I made a habit out of shuffling savings
And standing toe-to-toe I think we're faking it fine
I guess my invite was a spiritual error
A restitution via PayPal and pressure

I could probably use a fourth job
I'm stuck with paying it all off

Mmm, I'm paying it all off
Mmm, I'm paying it all off

You said you hate it when I try and be funny
'Cause every joke I make is comin' out runny and wrong
Tried to apologize and put it on my tab
Treated the friends you brought to Stella and Cognac

All this emotional debt's got me so lost
I'm stuck with paying it all off

Mmm, I'm paying it all off
