The Party

[Verse 1]

Abandon all hope, those who enter the lions' den

It's ready to drive, all you need is a pen

Sign across the dotted lines, adventure back from the pines

And I swear that I'll live in the party



As we pass the stop signs and warning lights

The orange is refracted across the windshield tonight

In the cold of the moon, as the icicles are in bloom

It's clear I'll never win this fight



[Verse 2]

We open the door as the satellites crash into the ground, they're gone in a flash

As the world is spinning and the TV is flickering

I swear I'll never enjoy the party



I promise that you're thinking of somebody else

When you tap me on the shoulder and beg me to help

"You shouldn't ask me for favors, 'cause I'm not your savior"

Laments to the blissfully deaf



[Verse 3]

Now she's vomiting on the bathroom floor

In between cries for "something more"

The blood and the sweat mix with morning regret

And I swear I won't return to the party



But I take in too much as I criticize the dream

And listen to you question who I used to be

You can barely see anything through the layers of apathy

And I swear I won't return from The Party
