[Verse 1: Dan Caplen]
SGtarted off so sweet, tAmake you out to eat
But rEmolling home at 5CAM
WGe go out every night cAmhasing those cheap highs
WEmish we could do that aCgain
But now you're hGurting and I'm huAmrting
We ain't leEmarning from all our mistCakes
You're fruGstrated, it's compliAmcated
All these cEmhanges, do you feel the saCme?
[Chorus: Dan Caplen & Sinéad Harnett, Dan Caplen]
We used to spend eGvery Friday night sAmearching for them thrills
WandEmering 'round in ecstasy, but diCdn't take the pills
So now I got Gblood shot eyes on a SAmunday night
Fell aEmsleep on the sofa but I've nCever felt closer to yGouAm  
Closer to yEmou, yCou
[Verse 2: Dan Caplen]
You were nGew to the city, but Amput your trust in me
SwEmore no one would hold my lCove
And tGhose words still stand true
AmI will stay by you eEmven when you've had enoCugh, oh

You're frustrated, it's complicated

All these changes, do you feel the same?

We used to spend every Friday night searching for them thrills
