LyricMeaning

You Avoid Parties
Posies

Isn't it nice how things resolve

To test your will would take the skill of crazy ants

You fit your mind into smaller and smaller jars

You find them clutching the last straw

As if it's worth the worse for wear and tear you look

But why try to understand someone that you don't even know

Even though he brought you up, beat you up,

Shut you up when you cried ?

And now you avoid parties

Because they remind you

Of someone who you used to know

Pretty soon you'll want to avoid yourself

A popular phrase from the same year

Would draw no tears save for the fears of looking back

You find you hide for weaker and weaker reasons

The battle you lost in the mirror

Earned you no thanks but wooden planks were soon withdrawn

And you couldn't run away even if you tried

And you tried and you cried 'cause you knew that laying flat

In your parents' car

And now you avoid father

Because they remind you

Of someone who you used to know

Pretty soon you'll want to avoid your own

And now you're finally on your own

You draw your choices from the voices you despise

You find you're drawn to tighter and tighter circles

Flashbacks, flashes forward

You are insane though you have gained such wide appeal

And all the car rides, cheap insides, laughter at the right people

At the right time at the right line in the right frame of mind

And now you avoid thinking

Because it reminds you of someone you used to know

Pretty soon you'll only think about yourself
