Sister City - Parties

I'm mostly alone and it's my fault
Can't pick up the phone and just call
Too much of a risk, the rejection
Easier for me to sit and watch tv

Parties don't look like they used to
More babies, a little less booze
Exhaustion hits at sundown
Thank you all for coming out

When I see you now, it means more
Than it ever did when we were twenty-four

I like my job most of the time
It pays fine and I sleep alright in theory
Still spend most nights staring at ceilings in reality

Parties don't look like they used to
More babies, a little less booze
Exhaustion hits at sundown
Thank you all for coming out

When I see you now, it means more
Than it ever did when we were twenty-four
It takes a flight or a two-days drive through the night
Yeah, that's the price
Mother-in-law can watch the kids
So you can come and talk a bit
What once was a daily thing has become a luxury

Parties don't look like they used to
More babies, a little less booze
Exhaustion hits at sundown
Thank you all for coming out

Parties don't look like they used to
More babies, a little less booze
Exhaustion hits at sundown
Thank you all for coming out
