Raised in a town that always sleeps
In a town in which apart from the people nothing else is going on (going on)
We spent a lot of time at Nettos
Imagining what it'd be like to be famous (uh-huh)
Sleeping in on Mondays
Buyng a house for Grandma
Girls are fainting
Bringe drinking
But free alcohol at parties doesn't make much sense in a way that you need it put on your beer goggles
Somehow I thought, I'd like this
Somehow I imagined this differently
Somehow we don't fit in here in this world
And we sleep alone with no groupies at the hotel
Everything's great, everything's yeah
Everyone's drunk and still empty
I'd drive back home
If only I wasn't that plastered
Back alone, New Year's Eve at my place
A bit frustrating, maybe
But still better than here
Somehow I thought, I'd like this
Somehow I imagined this differently
Somehow we don't fit in here in this world
I've got to get out of here, quickly
It's getting light outside
This home is not a house
This house is not a home
But it's still better than being with you
The fucking flat is cold
And way too small anyway
But it's still better than being with you
Yeah, fair enough, that music is called Deephouse
But given that no one's dancing, it's pretty loud
I don't understand a single word you're telling me
I just smile and hope it wasn't a question
I wait in front of closed doors
All the toilets are occupied
Can't be bothered to discuss
People on coke are always right
The red carpet is filthy
Full of vomit and beer
The guys in the mirror are ugly
But it's still us
Somehow I thought, I'd like this
Somehow I imagined this differently
Somehow we don't fit in here in this world
I've got to get out of here, quickly
It's getting light outside
This home is not a house
This house is not a home
But it's still better than being with you
The fucking flat is cold
And way too small anyway
But it's still better than being with you
The couple next door argue all the time
The fridge is empty except for two cans of Sprite
I'm often lonely and often alone
But it's still better than being with you
