Lyrics

It doesn't matter how hard you try to deny
What I can see clearly with my drinking eye
You know I'd never stop until I see you cry
Make you insist through snot and tears that you'd never lie

Now my friday nights have many uses
I can forget what happens and make up bad excuses
It doesn't need a weapon or much motivation
Just a bit beer spilt on my playstaion

It makes me sure I've seen him try it on a few times before
As I shake my head and sigh, standing halfway through the door
You might have shared a school, a street, you might've known him for years
It makes no odds to me, I just want to see the tears
