Confetti

A boy was crying in the confetti The party was over, he was drunk and sweaty He was watching her sneakers disappear from view And shouting maybe we bit off more than we could screw Oh He threw her a party to try and win her back Well, they were both surprised, I think he'd better check his math She quietly said it was a little too little too late And then she left him lying in a distasteful state Well, would you really want it back like it was? It was fragile as glass, easy to smash I'm surprised we took so long to collapse, babe And leave me crying in the confetti Baubles and quips sit still on the lips Of the couple who don't speak But there's no puling it back for all the jokes that you crack Once it's passed its peak You know that screwing in silence Won't staunch the blood once you've stabbed it Because she sorta loves crying alone When she cabs it So take all that hurt with a pinch of salt 'Cause you were liars in love and maybe it wasn't your fault Or maybe you were wrong to ever let it go As you lay there crying at least you'll know That the remedy's cheap and even works in your sleep And I'm sure that we've got same I've hid it under the sink to left of the leak And bring me back one Well, you could drink it down or take a look at yourself But I know you're not ready You'll be down there for years, with your drink and your fears Crying in the confetti Crying in the confetti I know you're not ready Crying in the confetti Can't even hold it steady Crying in the confetti I know you're not ready Crying in the confetti Pull out when you're ready to go
