The Boy Who Cried Drunk (The Demo) Lyrics

First time I was so into him, I didn't care
I thought, "hell, I've been drunk too, yeah, I've been there"
When everybody's on a party high, the bar is set real low
He seemed like everybody else, how was I supposed to know?

That "I'll have one"
Always means one too many

Then it's holes punched in the wall
56 missed calls at 4 a.m.
Crying in a bathroom stall
'Cause he's fighting in the parking lot again
And I wake up, swollen red eyes
He'll come over and apologize
And say it's only 'cause he drank too much
But you know the truth is that he's just
The boy who cried drunk

And for a week, he'll be the man you want him to be
Treat you better than he ever has
So you don't wanna leave

You keep trying to save him
But that's why he ain't changing

From holes punched in the wall
56 missed calls at 4 a.m.
Crying in a bathroom stall
'Cause he's fighting in the parking lot again
And I wake up, swollen red eyes
He'll come over and apologize
And say it's only 'cause he drank too much
But you know the truth is that he's just
The boy who cried drunk

He'll keep crying drunk 'til
You stop giving in to

Holes punched in the wall
56 missed calls at 4 a.m.
Crying 'cause he lost it all
And he knows you ain't coming back again
And he'll wake up, swollen red eyes
No one left to apologize to
'Cause you've finally had enough
And you know, the truth is that he's just
The boy who cried drunk
