Story Behind The Song
The party seemed surreel, like a dream and it was as if I could see through all the phoniness in all the smiles and could see all the hurt behind the eyes.
Song Description
When I woke up after the party in some room I walked to the bus and wrote this song about the front that people put up and all the real them are hidden and seem to be suffering.

Intro
You laugh I smile we cry in style your eyes they lie inside
Verse
There you go dressed to kill
Trying to fill the hole
Drink it up laugh it up
Can't you get enough
What a zoo but I'm here too
And I know you've been hurt too
Let's get a room we'll just spoon
And take me out of blue
Chorus
Laugh I smile we cry in style your eyes they lie inside we hide
Verse
It's OK it's alright If you could stay with me tonight
Need you bad yes I've been hurt for what that might be worth
I'm so cold I need you bad I'll say you're the best I ever had
I got game but it's no good cause it never felt the way it should
Chorus
Laugh I smile we cry in style your eyes they lie inside
Yes I'm hurt I'm hurt you too
Me I'm hurt I'm hurt you too
Let me go Let me hurt tonight
Let me go I hurt I hurt
Let me go Let me hurt tonight
Oh I hurt let me go let me go
