Not cause I wanted to get drunk

And you didn’t wait for me

When I got there you were already fucked

I shouldn’t drink on these meds

By now I don’t think I want to catch up

Sitting back watching your friends

Throwing a dirty ping pong ball in your cup

You said you don’t want me to hate you anymore

I know I don’t cause trust me I wish I did

You don’t believe me while I hold your hair back and you’re throwing up on the floor I could’ve stayed home But why would I miss out on this

You threaten to jump again

And This time I almost let you

We talk about the end

And how I could never understand how much you’ve been through

Why do you look so smug

When you’re telling me how horrible I am

And here I am in the palm of your hand
