about

For awhile the idea of spending a weekend not going out seemed so impossible to me. It seems so stupid but I had such bad anxiety about missing out on something fun happening, or the thought of staying in preventing myself from meeting new people and making my circle of friends bigger. With that being said I'd tell myself every weekend to go out, but I found/find myself focusing too much on getting drunk rather than meeting people. I'm constantly reliving that awkward conversation "hey what's your name?"
"dude we've already met like three times"
"Oh sorry I was really drunk the last time we met, and I'm really drunk right now"
Anyways in theory going out every weekend is a really good healthy way to live but when I put it to work it ends up being the same mundane ritual more times than not. Isn't it funny to think, I have to do something this weekend, I know i'll go to the same bar i go to every single weekend with the same people. YEA THAT'S FUN THAT'S MIXING THINGS UP. (Isn't that the definition of insanity or something) So I hope one day I can learn to balance all these things and build a community of loving people to surround myself with. By the way if you're wondering the bar that I tend to frequent most is Hells Kitchen Lounge in Newark New Jersey and if I'm not too drunk Hopefully we can meet because I don't like blacking out every weekend.

lyrics

Me and my friends are at the bar again.
It's a quarter to three, and we're still chasin shots of whiskey with two dollar beers.
You know every weekend you can, find me.

I can't shake off this lifestyle this shit is getting old.
I get calls from my friends and I can't seem to say no
I'll rationalize it by saying that I'm going for just one round.
before I know it's last call and I'm stumbling to the ground.

I'm sick of going out and blacking out and waking and throwing up.
I feel like shit it's time to quit aaah fuck it's Thursday night

I'm sick of getting drunk I'm in a funk I don't know what to do
I feel like shit it's time to quit aah fuck it's Friday night

I'm sick of giving up and caving in it's one more drink till I get the spins
I feel like shit it's time to quit and FUCK ITS SATURDAY NIGHT
