Life of the Party

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
