Back Then

Back then I loved to party
But only cause part of me was dying
Wanted to fit in, because for so long I didn't
Rather be the life of the party
Than stuck in a repeat role of the nobody

I drank to mask the sorrow
Laughed through the pains of tomorrow
Seemed to me, my only vaccine
Was drowning myself in the party scene

Back then my professors felt a way about me
But they didn't see the pain of losing family
They could teach but couldn't learn
No matter how much it was hurting their own

I drank to mask the sorrow
Laughed through the pains of tomorrow
Seemed to me, my only vaccine
Was drowning myself in the party scene

Back then I loved to party
But looking back clearly
I wonder if they'd all still hate me
If they could have seen the circumstances
That raised me

I drank to mask the sorrow
Laughed through the pains of tomorrow
Seemed to me, my only vaccine
Was drowning myself in the party scene
