I sit in a corner
Of a club
Too often visited
I don't really care
For this scene
I'm only here
To try and fit in
But why do I try
When I know I'll never belong
With them
Music is blasting
Bodies are dancing
People look like zombies
Brain dead
Moving to the beat
Intoxicated
Up in smoke
Stumbling over
Be careful not to choke
Laughter and voices
Blend in with the music
People bumping into you
Strangers trying to get at you
You seem indifferent
Of all the commotion
Taking place around you
You're so lost in the music
Drowning in the sound
Slowly swaying back and forth
I try to escape too
But I really just want to escape with you
So will you let me
Take you away
We can both run away
I'm not like those creeps
I promise
If anything
I'm like you
Lost in a place
Trying to find a place
Trying to keep up
With the fast moving
Rhythmic pace
I catch myself
Staring at the exit
More than the dancefloor
But being dragged into
The abbyss of it
Into the sea of flesh bags
By my overly excited friends
I like to dance
Don't get me wrong
But I'm not trying to
Put on a show
For anyone
Sure I can dig the beats being dropped
And dancing with friends can be fun
Drinking and laughing
And singing along to the song
Escaping and forgetting my worries
Letting the moment consume me
In a psychedelic trance
In a sea of colors
As I dance
It's not always draining
I can find a way to enjoy myself
But honestly
I would just rather be at home
Alone
With you
And my cats
