Wedding Song

Verse 1 Cheers to the newlyweds And compliments to the chef Don't know if my invite was an accident or ill intent I know I should've left When the flower girl threw up on your dress No offense I see your parents split Guess your mum finally got the hint I bet those Sunday dinners are a mess I really wish y'all the best And these words reach you in times of stress As a fact it's more than it ever meant How's your forever holding up against regret? I watched the cameras flash like lightning strikes While everybody cheered and raised their glasses high I smiled through clenched teeth for every photograph Like I wasn't counting all the pieces of our aftermath You looked right through me when you said "I do" Like every scar between us wasn't proof So here's a toast from the ghost you can't forget The one you swore you'd never love again Chorus So raise your glass and sing along To every reason that I stayed too long And if your perfect picture starts to bend Don't call me when the story hits the end Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh You buried us beneath your wedding song Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh And I'm still screaming from the lawn Verse 2 To the beautiful now Mrs. Dior Before we proceed Indeed let's not forget If I would've chose different, you would've never met I stand with my decisions, my ways are set Dying alone is more a wet dream than a threat And I know that's a terrible thing to say But honesty was always our grenade You built a castle from the wreckage that we made Then painted over every crack with your new last name I hear he's everything I couldn't be A better fit for all your family trees But if perfection's all it's cracked up to become Why do I still live rent-free inside your songs? Bridge (chantable) I said forever! you said never! You moved on! I got better! I said forever! you said never! Everybody close knows who you really are and sees thru who you pretend to be Hey! Hey! Hey! It's not my fault we changed! Hey! Hey! Hey! It's not my name you saved! Hey! Hey! Hey! We're both the ones to blame! Hey! Hey! Hey! Final Chorus So raise your glass and sing along To every reason that I stayed too long And if your perfect picture starts to bend Don't call me when the story hits the end Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh You buried us beneath your wedding song Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh I'm finally learning to move on
