Ethan Bortnick
the last laugh
[Verse 1]
I'm hiding underneath the porch, yeah
You give me wrinkles on my forehead
You're breaking off a piece of me
I'm scared of our relationship
But not particularly you
We sadly stick together like, honey, Gorilla Glue
[Chorus]
I'm keeping track of my fingernails
To measure the time that's passed
We've spun around on this merry-go-round
The carousel's final lap
The weeds spring up and the garden dies
Been watering all the wrong things
We've decomposеd our self-control
Our words have lost their wеight
[Verse 2]
I hated talking to your dad
You didn't stop picking at your scab
I screamed at you, and you screamed back
We're straight up from a horror film
The walls caved in your room
I never got the chance to trick-or-treat with you
[Chorus]
And the punchline hit a year ago
Still fighting for the last laugh
We've spun around on this merry-go-round
The carousel's final lap
The weeds spring up and the garden dies
That's just how it is
We've decomposed our self-control
Our words have lost their weight
[Outro]
If something new ever blooms
Your roots remain
And I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
The same
