The Party of the Year

The Party of the Year

This...
is the party of the year

and we all must go.

Cause she will be there, 

and that we know.

So... 

I took a shower

got fixed up 

I looked in the mirror

and made up stuff.

Me and my friends

were gonna take the long drive

tonight were going to drink

and make sure we're alive.

Because this...
is the party of the year 

and we all must go.

Cause she will be there,

this we all know.

So

When we walk in

the music must be loud

the lights must be dark

and well join the crowd.

Well get rowdy

and...

were gonna dance.

Do our best not to think,

when we get the chance.

Because this...
is the party of the year

and we all must go. 

Cause she will be here,

of this we sure.

So

I'm not sure know if were drunk

but we sure aren't sober.

And though our balance is off

the night is not yet over.

each of us pair off

with someone new

and ask this person 

if they would like to get a room.

Because this...
is the party of the year

and we all must go.

Cause she's here,
isn't she though?

So

We all get rooms 

and together we stumble 

we trend on instinct

by nature were humbled.

We try as we might

or as hard as we can

to hold the feelings that make us

feel grand...

Because that,
was the party of the year

and you had to go.

of course she was not there,

but you did not know...

Late Bloomer

Late Bloomer 

Her eyes are shot...

and shes frozen.

I could see the moment,

when she knew

he was poison...


And if he's poison

well then she's already sick.

She consumed too much

and her sorrow is thick.

Shes built a life on twigs and leaves,

and all sorts of burnable things.


And I was there when she broke.

Now she must comply

it's no joke.

She scans the room

but there's no where to run.

And soon...

demons will eat and have their fun.


The girl will retreat,

to a place only she can go.

She'll go to her mind

somewhere only she knows.

Once there she'll close the door,

in many ways won't be here anymore.

She gave herself to some one and was mistreated,

sometimes that's the price you pay when you want to feel needed.

For her now only sorrow is in store

I've seen it so many times before...
