In a room full of people
A party in full swing
I thought I'd get to know you
See what makes your spirit sing
(Pre-Chorus)
But in the midst of all this noise
I find myself alone
Like a stranger in a world
That's supposed to be my own
(Chorus)
This party's nothing more than a front
A masquerade, an empty stunt
You think it's just a party
But I'm holding back the tears
'Cause I'm the only one who knows
The party in my heart is gone
(Verse 2)
The music's so loud
I can't hear my own thoughts
I want to break away
But the crowd's too close
(Pre-Chorus)
And through the laughter and the cheers
I feel a sense of dread
I'm trapped in this moment
And I can't seem to get ahead
(Chorus)
This party's nothing more than a front
A masquerade, an empty stunt
You think it's just a party
But I'm holding back the tears
'Cause I'm the only one who knows
The party in my heart is gone
(Bridge)
I see you dancing with somebody else
And I can't help but feel
That I've lost a part of myself
To this party that's tearing me apart
(Chorus)
This party's nothing more than a front
A masquerade, an empty stunt
You think it's just a party
But I'm holding back the tears
'Cause I'm the only one who knows
The party in my heart is gone
(Outro)
(The party's over)
(And I'm left alone)
(In a world that's turned so cold)
(I guess I was wrong)
(About what you really meant to me)
(This party's over)
(And the light's gone out)
(Is it too late to turn it around?)
(I'm not sure if I can make it through)
(This party's over)
(And I'm left alone)
