Party!

(album: The Sad Vegan - 2019)

We drink to cope with rejection
Parents who chose our direction
Futures with too many questions
So we stuff into cars 'cause we can't go to bars
House filled with kids trying to face it
Can't vote but know what their drink is
Chasing the party and bullshit
Glossed over eyes lost track of time

I'm surrounded by these empty cups
And bodies on the floor
And I'm tired of making myself numb
So I don't feel anymore
And the bathroom tile I'm leaning on
Is cold against my cheek
This isn't quite the teenage dream
I thought that it would be

I don't really wanna party
It's not really much my scene
I don't really wanna party
There's gotta be something else for me
I don't really wanna party
It's not really much my scene
I don't really wanna party
There's gotta be something else for me

We drink to handle the distance
In touch but never connected
Comparisons turn destructive
You'll never see a face off the screen

'Cause I'm surrounded by these empty cups
And bodies on the floor
And I'm tired of making myself numb
So I don't feel anymore
And the bathroom tile I'm leaning on
Is cold against my cheek
This isn't quite the teenage dream
I thought that it would be

I don't really wanna party
It's not really much my scene
I don't really wanna party
There's gotta be something else for me
I don't really wanna party
It's not really much my scene
I don't really wanna party

There's gotta be something else for me
There's gotta be something else
There's gotta be something else for me
There's gotta be something else
There's gotta be something else for me
I don't really wanna party
I don't really wanna party

We drink til we reach perfection
Get lost in search of perspective
It's getting old but we're desperate
Nowhere to run so we stay til it's done
