I want to go out tonight, but I don't really feel like dancing
Wanna know what it's all about, but no-one seems to have the answers now . . .

I want to go out tonight, but I don't really feel like fighting
Don't want to scream and shout, just to get a single word in now . . .

Chorus:
Hey . . . the music's playing, everything's alright
Hey . . . now I'm glad I came outside tonight . . .yeh yeh . . .

I want to stay in tonight, but I really feel like drinking
I want to escape the world, and alcohol might stop me thinking now . . .

(Chorus)

And now it only really hurts me when I smile,
It's lucky nothing's made me happy for a while.
The chemicals and random thoughts inhabiting my brain,
Push the numbness from my limbs and make me feel again.

I need to stay in tonight, but the voices keep on calling
The lights won't let me rest, I guess I've only got myself to blame . . .

(Chorus)
