Party Now

Missin’ me 
What happened to me
I’m a shell of a man
It’s been a long time seeing this man, staring back at me from this mirror 
I haven’t seen this man for awhile now
No, I haven’t seen me
For a long, long, time

Oh those days of laughter and carefree days seem to be so far away
In my head, storms never seem to stop now
A broken man, now
I have so much pain to heal from  now
So it’s rainin’ again inside, against my windowpane 
My eyes stained from the inside, burns like fire
With all these tears
My brain so twisted from the wreckage of what I’ve become

It’s time to party
It’s time to feel good
Cause I’m not spending one more minute
In this storm
Call me a broken man
Ya
But I can party 
And your memory will disappear 
from my blackout
Ya I can party and leave this storm behind me now
