The Durutti Column - Party Lyrics

Dreams burnt out forever
Dreams burnt out forever
This is a party
How did I get here
This is a party
How did I get here
Always left lying slumped in a chair
Wondering why the room's so bare
Unable to leave
Unable to leave
Turn off the light
Turn off the glare
The girl I came with
Lying drunk on the floor
I don't remember her name
It doesn't matter anymore
Still got her shoes on
She's covered in her coat
Dreams burnt out forever
Dreams burnt out forever
Abandoned to a silence
Screaming out of passion and pain
The sense of my loss
Again and again
Abandoned to a silence
Screaming out of passion and pain
The sense of my loss
Again and again
This is a party
How did I get here
[fade]

Dreams burnt out forever
Dreams burnt out forever
This is a party
How did I get here
This is a party
How did I get here
Always left lying slumped in a chair
Wondering why the room's so bare
Unable to leave
Unable to leave
Turn off the light
Turn off the glare
The girl I came with
Lying drunk on the floor
I don't remember her name
It doesn't matter anymore
Still got her shoes on
She's covered in her coat
Dreams burnt out forever
Dreams burnt out forever
Abandoned to a silence
Screaming out of passion and pain
The sense of my loss
Again and again
Abandoned to a silence
Screaming out of passion and pain
The sense of my loss
Again and again
This is a party
How did I get here
