[Verse 1]
You said
"Relax
I'm just joking"
Same old line
Same old smoke ring
You break things
Then call it fate
Leave the mess on my nameplate
I did the crying in driveways
You did the lying in broad day
You want a medal for half-truths
I’m done handing out rescue
[Chorus]
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it
Swim in the stories you spin
Every lie
Every minute
You built this flood
Now you can live in it
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it
[Verse 2]
You text at midnight
"I miss us"
I read it once
Then I hit “dust”
You want a bridge back to my door
You burned it twice
Then asked for more
You said I’d crumble without you
Look at me now
I’m brand new
Your favorite victim just quit
Enjoy the taste of your own spit
[Chorus]
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it
Swim in the stories you spin
Every lie
Every minute
You built this flood
Now you can live in it
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it
[Bridge]
I gave you grace
You took a mile
You wore my hurt like it was style
Now all your tears are late fees
And I’m cashing out
I’m free (yeah)
[Chorus]
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it
Swim in the stories you spin
Every lie
Every minute
You built this flood
Now you can live in it
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it (hey!)
Cry me a river
Then drown yourself in it
