Deva St. John - Pity Party Lyrics

I slammed my foot in the car door
'Cause it wasn't gunna take me where I needed to go
Luckily, I got one more
Still, I could stand if I lost them both

My generation can't quit
Our intuition is split
I got a mind like a minefield
Watch your step
Watch your step

It'd be nice
It'd be nice to make you feel
It'd be nice
It'd be nice to pay my bills
It'd be nice
It'd be nice to read my life
Written clearly on the wall
But if all I have is a beating heart
I'll find a way to make it art
And if all I do is run my mouth
Oh, ima keep going till my blood dries out

'Cause there ain't no party like a pity party
Oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap along
Orange juice and black confetti
Oh, none of us are really ever alone
Oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap along
You shifty little, tricky little sinking stone

I've been crying into a microphone
I've been smiling through some shit
I've been hiding behind a party girl
I've been pretty fine with it
I've been holding onto something
But I don't know where to put it
If I screw my eyes shut maybe someone else will walk me through it

White knuckles on my handlebars
There's a hole in my wheel and a knife inside my gut
I'm holding on, I'm holding real tight
But I'm a clunky motherf*cking monkey on this bumpy ride

I'm alright

'Cause there ain't no party like a pity party
Oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap along
Orange juice and black confetti
Oh, none of us are really ever alone
Oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap along
You shifty little, tricky little sinking
Risky little, pretty little sinking
Dizzy little, busy little sinking stone

I slammed my head up against the wall
I surely did stagger, but I didn't fall
My speech is slurred, my vision's blurred
My walk has changed, but I'm still heard

My eenie, meanie, motivation
Can't handle all this expectation
We're crawling out the trenches
Just hold your breath
Hold your breath

'Cause there ain't no party like a pity party
Oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap, oh, clap along
Orange juice and black confetti
Oh, none of us are really ever alone
No, none of us are really ever alone
You shifty little, tricky little sinking
Shifty little, tricky little sinking
Shifty little, tricky little sinking
Shifty little, tricky little sinking stone
