It's a night, yeah, it's the night that I've been dreaming of
It's a party, yeah, that party I've been dreading so
And I kept telling you I didn't really want to go
I can suffocate just fine in my humble abode

And I don't know the song you're talking about
I can't hear the music's way too loud
And I've been through this whole scenario before
And it's just not gaining ground

'Cause the journey is the first part
And the journey is the last part
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

And the journey is the first part
And the journey's where you get off
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

You and I are lightning bolts inside a thunder cloud
It's still the same, the first and forty-second time around
I always tell myself that getting out is good for me
I never seem to learn that misery is company

And I don't know the song you're talking about
I can't hear the music's way too loud
And I've been through this whole scenario before
And it's just not gaining ground

'Cause the journey is the first part
And the journey is the last part
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

And the journey is the first part
And the journey's where you get off
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

'Cause the journey is the first part
And the journey is the last part
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

It's a night, yeah, it's the night that I've been dreaming of
It's a party, yeah, that party I've been dreading so
And I kept telling you I didn't really want to go

'Cause the journey is the first part
And the journey is the last part
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

And the journey is the first part
And the journey's where you get off
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops

'Cause the journey is the first part
And the journey is the last part
And you get so sick of traveling
Before your aching heart stops
