Frank Turner - The Real Damage lyrics

I woke up on a sofa in an unfamiliar house
Surrounded by sleeping folks that
I didn’t know on failing to find my friends
I decided that it was clearly time to go
So I made my way out of the
Door as quietly as I could
There was no one there I knew to say goodbye
Squinting in the sadly sobering sunshine
Of the Sunday morning light

I started the night with all my
Friends and I ended up alone
Oh, yes I started out so happy
Now I’m hungover and down
It was about then that I
Realized I was halfway through
The best years of my life
So I scanned the local landmarks
Trying to find out where I was
And maybe even find a bus back home
I was longing for a shower
And for clean sheets
And a charger for my phone
And suddenly it hit me that I
Got paid this Friday last
And so I rifled through my
Pockets for some change
But all I found was a packet of
Broken cigarettes and sinking sense of shame

I started the night with all my
Friends and I ended up alone
Oh, yes I started out so happy
Now I’m hungover and down
It was about then that I
Realized I was halfway through
The best years of my life
I had to ask myself, well
Is it really worth it?
Is any of this worth it?
Well the whole thing’s far from perfect
But, I’ve yet to figure out a
Better way to spend my time

Too many suit's and dirty looks
Made me rack my brains
And the real damage started to sink in
It’d been quite a heavy weekend
But, I could just about
Remember where I’d been

I started the night with all my
Friends and I ended up alone
Oh, yes I started out so happy
Now I’m hungover and down
I stood on a street corner
And I felt a little sick
It was about then that I
Realized I was halfway through
The first day of the week
