Lyrics Going To a Show - Craig Finn

Some nights it just feels like the same old thing.
Some nights it feels like a new frontier.
Maybe that's why we keep coming here.

Girl when you look back at the bar.
I could swear you were looking at me.
You want to get something to eat?

I try so hard not to talk to myself
But it's hard 'cause I'm always alone.
Now she's playing with her phone.

It's always been the same old people.
Most of them are looking pretty old now.
And they rarely leave their homes.

I know some dudes that have dabbled in drugs.
I know some dudes that went pretty much pro.
You shouldn't try to fall in love.
When you're going to a show.

I try so hard not to talk to myself
But it's hard 'cause I'm always alone.

She said the bassist went to college with her brother.
He said hey you want another?
She said she might have to meet someone in the main room.
She softly touched his arm.
She said the bathroom is pretty nasty
But would you want to go in with me?
He said nah, I'm just going to go outside and smoke.

I try so hard not to talk to myself
But it's hard 'cause I'm always alone.

And I want to take you home.
