Afterparty Lyrics

The party's heating up with fire

My heart is beating with desire

I see her on the other side

My admiration cannot hide

We fall into a long embrace

The hall's too dark, conceals her face

She whispers to me I should stay

But I know I must go away

The fire's burning out, it seems

It's terrorizing all my dreams

The truth comes out, it's all uncovered

Don't have time for you, my lover

The afterparty's coming fast

No way to tell if we can last

Rise is slow, fall's abrupt

My time is up

There's no time for you, my dear

Whatever the cost, we've already lost

About to face my biggest fear

It's over, it's done, we couldn't have won

(It's) Ending and I'm starting anew

I'm leaving this town, I'm feeling all down

(And I) Don't want to say goodbye to you

But at least the afterparty sounds like fun

I'm laughing on with all my friends

It's some old joke they told again

My spirits lifted for awhile

I love them, they all make me smile

We get drunk and have some fun

Do things I'll wish I hadn't done

They're asking me to spend the night

But the fear comes back into the light

Procrastinate and hesitate

Ignore it all, I wait and wait

But I just can't enjoy my life

It's hanging like a swinging knife

The future scares me more and more

No passions like I had before

Take it slow 'till I can't

Repeat this rant

There's no time for you, my friend

Whatever the cost, we've already lost

We're almost at the very end

It's over, it's done, we couldn't have won

(It's) Ending and I'm starting anew

I'll never come back, we're all out of whack

(And I) Don't want to say goodbye to you

But at least the afterparty sounds like fun

(The afterparty, yeah)

Everyone is splitting up far apart

And nothing can fill up the hole in my heart

I can't put it off any longer, I fear

I keep dreading all the endings but they're already here

There's no time for you, my loves

Whatever the cost, we've already lost

I'm leaving, traveling up above

It's over, it's done, we couldn't have won

(It's) Ending and I'm starting anew

I'm leaving this town, I'm feeling all down

(And I) Don't want to say goodbye to you

But at least the afterparty sounds like fun
