Written and recorded by Michael Sanchez in Seattle, WA during the spring of 2005

lyrics

AT THE PARTY

you can avoid me
you can act like you don't see
me at the party
standing here with my hands free

all of these people
they smile and talk and mingle
they're all having good times
at the party

i can't avoid you
it's not easy in this crowd
here at this party
voices boom and basses loud

what was i thinking
i laugh and shout, i'm drinking
i haven't the faintest
at this party

no one said you'd be here
between the cigarettes and beer

maybe it's me or maybe it's you
or everyone here's got a clue
maybe everyone but me

had been so long since we last spoke
remember when our hearts broke?
remember when we were friends?

maybe it's just like my mother used to say
maybe it's just like she said

she said
you never fit in
