Twenty

from The Party by The Hobby

lyrics

Pine for days of ballroom halls, where afterwards you'd go and spread your life out in the car, and crash before you hit the bar
You lack the motivation to chase a spark that ignites the flame in your heart
A replacement to keep you warm in the dead of the coldest winter

Perpetually stuck at seventeen, while you make your home in a ditch at twenty
So you live for the nights that you won't remember, just like you did this past December
It took a few hours just to realize we have nothing in common after years of getting this right
Until your spirit dies with the nights you won't get back inside

Sing your songs of dead remorse, while you send your videos into dead air and wait for the alcohol to run it's beaten course
Around the racetracks inside your brain, processed by memories, it's all the same
If you think about the "good old days," has anything really changed?

Forever chasing the teenage dream, this lack of responsibility
In anything that you could ever say or try to mean
So click your heels and wish for home, and pen your words into your phone
'cause you can break all your rules or spend the night all alone

You shouldn't miss the nights like these where you're smiling all the way to The Party
And close the door of the hotel room between the dunes

(I swore you'd never change when I left for The Coast
Although you'd think a year later would have some news to report
And I thought that I'd miss you when you were silent for months
Until conveniently you came around when everything was looking up
I planned simple phrases out around in my head
Until I realized that everything was better unsaid
Now there's nothing I can do for you and nothing to say
The price to pay.)

((I don't know you
And I don't want to))
