Parties

Let's call it hesitation
Call it anxiety
Whatever name you call it
Oh it's killing me

I think I'll try to drown it out
With sugar-liquor drinks
Only way I know to numb it

Just tell me how you talk like that
Like the quiet doesn't drive you mad
Like you'd ever drink a beer this bad
Like this party isn't kind of sad

And chatting strangers up
Until the sun comes up
Is what you want

And the worst part is
That you think I'm your friend
That you think that I'm
Anything less than pretend

I don't think I wanna get your number
I don't think I wanna try to hang out after
Man, I'll see you later

Hey, you could never make me stay
I think it's time I made my getaway
So, dirty secret's all exposed
Everybody knows everybody goes
Home from parties all alone

Let's take it back to basics
Shit music on the playlist
Shit party no one's wasted
Shit's always overrated

I don't wanna be here
I don't wanna be here no more

And the best part is
With a drink in my hand,
When I'm sipping and I
Think I mighta drank too much to stand

Four on the floor don't get you dancing anymore
But that's what the drinks are for

Hey, you could never make me stay
I think it's time I made my getaway
So, dirty secret's all exposed
Everybody knows everybody goes
Home from parties all alone

Hey, you could never make me stay
I think it's time I made my getaway
So, dirty secret's all exposed
Everybody knows everybody goes
Home from parties all alone

I just wish somebody told me that your twenties can be lonely
Is it hard to believe that I'm not all that I need?
I think I'm leaving next
I'm sick of second best
And always playing it safe
So now I'm raising the stakes
I'm walking home

Hey, you could never make me stay
I think it's time I made my getaway
So, dirty secret's all exposed
Everybody knows everybody goes
Home from parties all alone

Hey, you could never make me stay
I think it's time I made my getaway
So, dirty secret's all exposed
Everybody knows everybody goes
Home from parties all alone
Everybody knows everybody goes
Home from parties all alone
