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
Fifty-six missed calls at 4AM
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
Fifty-six missed calls at 4AM
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
Fifty-six missed calls at 4AM
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 finally had enough
And you know, the truth is that he's just
The boy who cried drunk
