Painkiller The Pigeon - 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
