The Menzingers – Second City Lyrics

Rock

I was higher than I wanted to be
North Clark, Second City
These days I only want to party with you

I'm celebrating till the sun comes up
Pour a little something in my coffee cup
These days I only want to party with you
These days I only want to party with you

Nothing good ever comes from
Closing down a 4 A.M. bar
I used to think that I'd cracked the code
But then I'd walk home and forget my coat

You moved here a few weeks ago
You make me feel invincible
So scared that I'll blow it all up, I don't show it
Maybe I'm sort of a mess

But I've been cleaning
Myself up off of the floor
Better than ever before
I'm shaking to the core

I was higher than I wanted to be
Hoping I wasn't making a fool out of me
'Cause these days I only want to party with you

Now back booth of the bar again
With all of our friends all crammed in
But these days I only want to party with you
These days I only want to party with you

Nightcap on the fire escape
We'll slow down, we swear one day
We'll settle into the lives we'll make
When were damn well ready

But till then I'll be a barfly
You'll be a swatter
We'll be perfect and tragic
And desperate for each other

I'm always higher than I want to be
So much higher than I want to be
I'm always higher than I want to be
In the Second City

I'm always higher than I want to be
So much higher than I want to be
I'm always higher than I want to be
I'm Second City
