Menzingers, The - After The Party Lyrics

Why is that part at 3:06 even in the video?

Kai Xi to show that they have a weird & unique relationship. They enjoy doing dumb shit like going to thrift stores and dressing up. I think they show that at the end as a memory of the good times as they are falling apart.

Tip service workers

Flow the Cure haha,good job guys!!!

I get it. We were young. I was 21, she was 19. It was absolute CHAOS. But within that chaos, was something absolutely fucking beautiful.

So have an abortion because you don't want to stop partying? Nice message there.

I love this song and video me and my girlfriend to the fullest

whoa the date above the ATM machine is my 11th birthday wow

Late 2019? Anyone else on this masterpiece?

2020 here and i can never get enough

Modern day Sid and Nancy but with survival

My life in a nutshell without hapoy end :D
The best band Ive ever found to be honest :) Maybe someday I'll meet u in a Prague <3

This song to me is about how important it is to be okay with being alone. Because if you can't be okay being alone with yourself, how will you be okay being alone with someone when everything else has stopped? During the silent moments, during the boring ones. When everyone else has left the party, and it's just the 2 of you, are you both strong enough individually and together that you have a great foundation? That you can sit through the silent or boring or still moments together and still feel just as happy. Or did you need the craziness and chaos of the party around you to keep you together? Because at the end of the day, when you're in a relationship, it comes down to just the 2 of you. Nothing else matters but how the 2 of you are together, separate from everything else.

this makes me miss not having a care in the world and just having reckless fun with friends

Anyone from reddit?

I love this song and video so fucking much!!!!

audio engineer was like "shit this snare sounds good better make it loud af"

Great song!

this is like watching a life or a really good movie reflecting life which takes really good actors n good directing n filming. amazing job to everyone involved here! made me feel feelings, alot of them! good n bad memories I'd never trade for anything.

Bring back Bob and the Sagets

so like the girl was a hoe and fucked over both guys? sound about right

It's the same guy throughout the video. Just during the 1 shot she's just talking to someone at the bar and he gets jealous. You can even read her lips when the boyfriend comes up she goes "hey babe." Unless you saw something else in the video, or interpreted the lyrics differently than I did, which may be possible, haha.

You know this song makes me think of wtf went wrong between us ........ ☝️ so true

I've had times like this, but haven't in years. Fuck depression.

Why did you have to make me cry guys. I was already in love.

I will always come back to this song and video. Fucking Menzingers. Heartbreaking nostalgia in an audio-visual bottle.

on repeat

Powerful video

I noticed a Hyster forklift in one scene of the music video I approve because I build those 😊

Beautifully directed. Brought back memories of a different life, or so it seems, ha. Good memories.

amazing video dudes.

honestly the best music video ever

Saw them in Worcester Sunday.  Damn did they bring the noise!

This is sad but she is hot

Holy Fuck. An actual real fuckin music video compared to most junk these days

I mean it's always the toxic relationships that's stay with you forever and you wouldn't have it any other way even if you claim you love the one your with now......

💙💚💜💛 one of my all time forever fav bands!!!! Awesome live

Idk if you guys are familiar with Trophy eyes, but they used that same laundrt mat in their music video "Chlorine". Lol

This song hurt my feelings.

I'm in one of these relationships and this makes me miss something I already have.

Well I’m glad I’m single

Jusssst to hop on my previous statement about feeling like shit and good music/videos -- I dont regret much in life. Besides what everyone else does. But my actual biggest regret is fobbing off seeing Modern Baseball at the Vic Inn in Derby. Fuck anxiety, fuck depression, fuck self-doubt. There is so, so many bands that I have missed because of this shit mentalhealthbullshit. Do yourself a favour, don't miss out -- go see that band. You'll appreciate it.


Yep. The same for The Menzingers. I've been going through some absolute shit these past few weeks, months, years and these guys have been a fuckin' beacon of hope. I'm on the brink of death but I just pop on Chamberlain Waits and I think things might just be okay.

Try watching this video listening to 'Casey'. Just do it.

This reminds me of andy black

I have something in my eye, excuse me for a sec.

At the gym doing leg press, phone on my stomach. Mid set my thigh presses my phone and this wound up playing this, happy accidents

Como se llama la chica del video?

Como se llama la chica?

Let’s be honest; this is the best band of the 21st century.

This and Belmont

I had a love like this and lost a baby the same way they did.  To live this authentically, despite the pain, is beyond words.

I don't care where life takes me, as long as I have you

Never watched such a fitting and absolutely beautiful video to go with hearing the song for the first time.

this song is so great

Nothing short of an amazing band.. meaningful music!

Yeah, nice video.
But the song... that Song, that‘s one of the most powerful rock songs I know. It‘s like. a rocket booster propelling me through my day.

This song just never gets old

It was like yasinta and her ex tho :') she love this song very much!!

Discovered this song by accident a month ago, now I can’t stop listening to it and every time that I watch the video it makes me cry so much. I don’t even know why

I love and relate so much to the story this song/video tells. Ive been in a couple of these amazingly disfunctional/codependent relationships. They are paradoxical in that from my experience the passion and companionship experienced compared to that of which most would call a "healthy" relationship is greatly unsurpassed. The inseperable attraction, the sex, comradery, usually drugs, reckless devotion, and what i call the "Bonnie and Clyde" or "Sid and Nancy" mentality are what make these relationships so intensely devoted yet highly destructive. For me memories of this type of relationship comprise equally the best and worst memories of my life. I think what happens is a rare phenomena when two rebel kindred spirits discover, come to understand and identify each others true nature. While this sounds ideal for any relationship the issue is the "rebel" side of their nature (for lack of a better word, character flaw would be innacurate of what im describing). These are characteristics and behaviors that when paired with another spirit with its own unique characteristic/behaviors tend to ideally balance each other out.
When the two aforementioned "kindred rebel spirits" meet these potentially damaging characteristics are embraced, brought to the forefront and exacerbated. Again, from my experience these two souls form a perfect storm of unflinching loyalty, unhealthy infatuation, lovedrunkeness, the melting of each of their individual needs and identities and more often than not at the very least borderline substance abuse tendencies. The merger described above often devolves from an intense unparalleled bond/romance to a codependent, drug riddled embodiment of chaos and debauchery. The end of which usually for me signaled a trip to rehab, a requisite changing of phone number/address and emotional scars which usually take me a couple years to move past. Dont get me wrong. Im not entirely denouncing this type of relationship. As i said before the love and connection i felt in these relationships is still to this very day incomparable and unmatched. I wouldnt trade that experience of having felt so intensely about and forging an unbreakable bond with another person for anything. Was it highly unhealthy behavior that ultimately ended in an equally intensive chaotic heartbroken dischord? Absolutely but experiencing this vast, complex range of feelings/emotions concurrently with someone else is what comprises the best parts of being human. Of course the destructive nature and woes that follow would comprise the other nature of being human. You either get burned by the fiery passion, learn from it and move on/heal or it consumes you and a departure in a fiery blaze of debauched, codependent glory is inevitable. I have personally experienced two such relationships. One sent me down a dark path where once passion and burning love reigned but were replaced by vengeful anger and spiteful indignation. I didnt understand what the saying "a thin line between love and hate" really meant until embarking on that darkest of journeys. The second aforedescribed scenario culminated in a trip to rehab followed by a still to this day ongoing process of self rediscovery and emotional healing. Sorry for the longwinded sappy verbal diarrhea, but seeing this video dredged up intentionally buried feelings. I felt it necessary for cathartic ends to tell my story of life,love,sex,violence and heroin as I relate it to this song/video.
I would love to hear similar stories from others. When im feeling robotic from the work/eat/playiflucky/sleep cycle i watch this video and take a stroll down debauched memory lane to remind me im still human and was fortunate to know the absolute best and the infernally worse the human experience has to offer. #noregrets #theanarchyandtheecstacy # lovemolotovsandrevolution

Just wow.

This make me miss my youth...

Was listening to headbanding metalcore then listen to this song and watching the video and im crying now. Beautiful band

who are the actors?

2019 and we still here

this video looks like a hold steady song

LYRICS

"After the Party" by The Menzingers

It's the little things my mind commits
To etch behind my eyelids
Like getting stoned when we wake up
Coffee grounds and coffee cups
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
And hardcore from laptop speakers
The classics to the more obscure
From Minor Threat to your old roommate's band
Like a kaleidoscope in vibrant hues
I navigate around your tattoos
Said you got that one on a whim when you were breaking up with him
And that Matryoshka Russian doll
That lines your shelf from big to small
What a way to start anew
To shed your skin and find the old you
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
With a new outlook on everything we see
From high upon this rooftop over South Philly
To the nights we lose our self control
From the sex, from the drugs, from the rock and roll
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you

It's the little things my mind commits
To etch behind my eyelids
Like getting stoned when we wake up
Coffee grounds and coffee cups
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
And hardcore from laptop speakers
The classics to the more obscure
From Minor Threat to your old roommate's band
Like a kaleidoscope in vibrant hues
I navigate around your tattoos
Said you got that one on a whim when you were breaking up with him
And that Matryoshka Russian doll
That lines your shelf from big to small
What a way to start anew
To shed your skin and find the old you

Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you

With a new outlook on everything we see
From high upon this rooftop over South Philly
To the nights we lose our self control
From the sex, from the drugs, from the rock and roll

Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you

Josh I miss you.

You said you would date me in a heartbeat yet you left just like that after i begged you not to.

I dont know if you'll ever see this but I love you and I dont care if its not what strangers usually say to each other. I love you. please come back.

Like the Flatliners, but soo much better. Forgive me.

Damn, this is a really great video.

this music video is like tumblr in 2012

I could see this video and listen this song forever. A love story that never ends.

This ain’t it chief.

Well... that was 3 minutes and 40 seconds of trashy people making bad decisions. Decent tune, though.

It's the little things my mind commits
To etch behind my eyelids
Like getting stoned when we wake up
Coffee grounds and coffee cups
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
And hardcore from laptop speakers
The classics to the more obscure
From Minor Threat to your old roommate's band
Like a kaleidoscope in vibrant hues
I navigate around your tattoos
Said you got that one on a whim when you were breaking up with him
And that Matryoshka Russian doll
That lines your shelf from big to small
What a way to start anew
To shed your skin and find the old you
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
With a new outlook on everything we see
From high upon this rooftop over South Philly
To the nights we lose our self control
From the sex, from the drugs, from the rock and roll
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you

The girl in this video is the same girl from churches music video - the mother we share.

this is a bit gay, but still, it's a guily pleasure

Sick fucking video, probably the best way to shoot the lyrics. Great quality and lighting

This a little too close to home

It's the little things my mind commits
To etch behind my eyelids
Like getting stoned when we wake up
Coffee grounds in coffee cups
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
And hardcore from laptop speakers
The classics to the more obscure
From Minor Threat to your old roommate's band

Like a kaleidoscope in vibrant hues
I navigate 'round your tattoos
Said you got that one on a whim
When you were breaking up with him
And that Matryoshka Russian doll
That lines your shelf from big to small
What a way to start anew
To shed your skin and find the old you

Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you

With a new outlook on everything we see
From high up on this rooftop over South Philly
To the nights we lose all self control
From the sex, from the drugs, from the rock and roll
Everybody wants to get famous
But you just want to dance in a basement
You don't care if anyone is watching
Just as long as you stay in motion
We put miles on these old jean jackets
Got caught up in the drunk conversations
But after the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you
After the party, it's me and you

God I hope they make it.  Fuck I hope they do.

they should break up. it's a toxic relationship

SVA sticker at 3:04 lets go!!! (my alma mater)

It's the little things my mind commits
To etch behind my eyelids
Like getting stoned when we wake up
Coffee grounds and coffee cups
Your silhouette in high top sneakers
And hardcore from laptop speakers

It was like me and my ex tho :') love this song vrry much!!

Philly stand up

Great Song

This video reminds me so much of my current relationship, evertime I feel that my relationship is dysfunctional I go to this video and It helps me..

This song makes my heart hurt in a good way. Perfect.

reminds me of the Kids in Love video by mayday parade

it is really american...love this song but this movie...cliché...bisous

Jesus what happened to Kyle Thrash?

Someone punch me in the face

This song makes cry like a baby.

i don't think i can ever hear this song without crying. what i've lost. what is gone.
it's ok she didn't stay. she just left a lot of scars that will never heal.
it's ok my friends moved back home. the cops still barge into our old haunts on noise complaints no one made.
the only regret is that i let it all go to my head.

tazmon122 fuck me. That one hit hard.

Wow. Just, wow.

Guy who directed this vid needs a goddamn oscar..

Scranton PA 😍

How did this never make it on to Shameful?

she's flat

The fact that this song is not in the billboard top 10 proves the world knows nothing about quality music anymore

Drug addiction sucks

2018 is coming to a close, and I hope that couple is still together.
