|
Swore I was gonna tell em the truth |
|
That was til everybody started asking 'bout you |
|
And I didn't know what to say |
|
Came up with some lame excuse |
|
Why you were gone |
|
Said you were gonna come later on |
|
Painted a smile on my face |
|
Like everything was okay |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
I was hanging around, rockin' the crowd |
|
Everybody singing along with my songs |
|
Taking my shots, throwing them back |
|
Acting like you ain't gone |
|
Well I don't want 'em to know I'm all alone |
|
And I ain't got nobody |
|
I don't want 'em to see I'm dyin' inside |
|
So I guess I'll be the life |
|
Life of the party |
|
And then one of your friends |
|
Came up and gave me a hug and asked me how we've been |
|
I smiled and said we're better than we've ever been |
|
Well I don't know why I had to lie |
|
Guess I didn't wanna tell her that you said goodbye |
|
I couldn't even look her in the eye |
|
So I kept on... |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Hanging around, rockin' the crowd |
|
Everybody singing along to my songs |
|
Taking my shots, throwing them back |
|
Acting like you ain't gone |
|
Well I don't want em to know I'm all alone |
|
And I ain't got nobody |
|
I don't want 'em to see I'm dyin' inside |
|
So I guess I'll be the life |
|
Life of the party |
|
[Bridge:] |
|
Everybody thinkin I'm feelin good |
|
Everybody thinkin I'm havin a real good time |
|
Don't know the truth about you and I |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
So I'm hanging around, rockin' the crowd |
|
Everybody singing along to my songs |
|
Taking my shots, throwing them back |
|
Acting like you ain't gone |
|
Well I don't want em to know I'm all alone |
|
And I ain't got nobody |
|
I don't want 'em to see I'm dyin' inside |
|
So I guess I'll be the life |
|
Life of the party |
|
Life of the party |
|
Life of the party |
|
So I guess I'll be the life |
|
Life of the party |
|
Swore I was gonna tell em the truth |
|
But I didn't know what to say |
