Confetti

What have I gone and done again?
Got my feet wet in the water
But I can’t seem to dive in
So I’ll take to the bottle
Call you up just as a friend
Then I’ll wake up beside you
What’ve I done again?
Walking home from work
Passing places I’ve been before
There are traces of broken hearts
Like gold confetti on the floor
Wondering what we could’ve been
And wondering if we could be it again
Spent my whole life untwisting the knot
My own head on my heart
I was nobody’s why
Stopped taking chances after broken romances
Leaving tokens for slot
She used to do the you and me were cheatin'
While I was busy sittin' safe and pretty
Time just passed me by!
Run in circles to the end of the town
Trying to trick the earth from spinning around
Need time to stand still and turn back the handle
Lie until the hourglass is blind to the sand
Sun keeps on rising and I’m still in bed
I’d like to see the horizon but it lives in my head
What have I gone and done again?
You’re at home with your heart on your sleeve
Trying to rip it to rags but you still believe
That I’ll come around, I will give in, and I know if I did
My new life will begin
Gotta say goodbye to my child that dies
Gotta sit back in time, my hands up in twist ties
The more to my spin wait 'til we begin
Keep it closer, to the end
What have I gone and done again?
Got my feet wet in the water
But I can’t seem to dive in
So I’ll take to the bottle
Call you up just as a friend
Then I’ll wake up beside you
What’ve I done again?
