The pop-ballad “Someone Else’s Party” is Creighton’s second single of 2019. Backed primarily by piano and strings, Creighton sings about the feeling of imposter syndrome.
[Verse 1]
I wanna celebrate everyone around me
Showing up for all my friends
I'm so proud of their success
I just like it better when it's not about me
Please don't give me compliments
Haven't done anything yet
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I keep emptying the bottle
While I'm filling everybody's glass
I drink last, I'm cool with that
[Chorus]
So you can always find me
At someone else's party
I'm not trying to steal the show
'Cause all my friends are happy
They're everything I can't be
But at least I'm not alone
[Verse 2]
I'll have a party when I feel like I deserve it
They'll be praising me all night
And I won't assume they're lying
Until then I'll raise a toast to those who find it
I can swallow all my pride
Like I've done a thousand times
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I'll keep emptying the bottle
While I'm filling everybody's glass
I drink last, I'm cool with that
[Chorus]
So you can always find me
At someone else's party
I'm not trying to steal the show
'Cause all my friends are happy
They're everything I can't be
But at least I'm not alone
You know where to find me (oh, oh, oh) (x2)
[Bridge]
Keep on dancing, I don't mind
Yeah I like spending all my time
Congratulating everybody else (everyone else)
Maybe I'm just terrified
That I'll be here until my time has passed
Still drinking last
[Chorus]
So you can always find me
At someone else's party
I'm not trying to steal the show
'Cause all my friends are happy
They're everything I can't be
But at least I'm not alone
You know where to find me (oh, oh, oh) (x8)
