lyrics

I just wanna live my life in truth
I hope that it is nothing really new to you
I won’t say I’m sorry
Welcome to the party
And if I follow through
Will you still be the person that I always knew
I won’t say I’m sorry
Welcome to the party

You don’t know what it’s like to be
All alone with company
I don’t wanna even talk no more
Even though I never spoke up before
What we talking bout?
Lemme get it right
Look in my eyes
They move from side to side
One goes left and the other goes right
It’s so hard to see straight cause

I just wanna live my life in truth
I hope that it is nothing really new to you
I won’t say I’m sorry
Welcome to the party
And if I follow through
Will you still be the person that I always knew
I won’t say I’m sorry
Welcome to the party (All this because you can’t fly)

Look both ways I’ve done that the whole time
You are late I’m the reason why
Don’t say hey with that look in your eyes
You’ll just make me want to cry
This timeline is built like mission
Will I win that’s my own decision
Built the bars to my mental prison
Now they’re gone it’s my time to glisten
I have wasted so many wishes
It is time for people to listen
I feel like a glitch in the system

I just wanna live my life in truth
I hope that it is nothing really new to you
I won’t say I’m sorry
Welcome to the party
And if I follow through
Will you still be the person that I always knew
I won’t say I’m sorry
Welcome to the party

My eyes are crooked but I see the way you look at me
My eyes are crooked and I know this ain’t no make believe
My eyes are crooked cause I see the way you look at me
Do you look at me? Will you look at me?

Thanks pal, for your first time out you did pretty well!
