lyrics

So you tell me that you are tired of waking up to everyone screaming
About all the stupid things you can’t remember from last evening
Whenever you opened your mouth only venom spilled out
Dressed up in simply the finest, you made the room scream and shout
Fixed on your most recent affair, you’re a stranger to all who were there
Lost to the lights and the crowd, you’re such the big shot now

And I’ll sell my soul tonight
to the first good looking thing in sight
God damn I don’t mind, so long as I make it to sunrise
Given good times I know these things will kill me from inside
And good god damn I don’t mind
so long as I enjoy the ride

You partied will all the pills in such a shameless display
Inhaling all of your thrills, your nights just drift on for days
You know you can’t keep up this pace living out of a carry on case
started with such a hungry heart, now you’re just a hollowed out space
Impressed by your blank glare. What does it take to get there?
Lost to the lights and the crowd, you’re such a big deal now

And I’ll sell my soul tonight
to the first good looking thing in sight
God damn I don’t mind, so long as I make it to sunrise
Given good times I know these things will kill me from inside
And good god damn I don’t mind
so long as I enjoy the ride

And I’ll sell my soul tonight
to the first good looking thing in sight
God damn I don’t mind, so long as I make it to sunrise
Given good times I know these things will kill me from inside
And good god damn I don’t mind
