Borrowed Glitter And Borrowed Time – Song [Wreath]
Verse 1Last party of the year and the hallway smells like snow and perfume mixed with fries,Coats piled high by the bedroom door like everyone shed their other lives,Speaker on the counter plays a song we swore we were too cool to still know line for line,And every joke tonight hits harder ’cause we’re all afraid of crossing that midnight line.
Verse 2Punch in the bowl, some kind of fruit drowning slow in a sugar-drunk sea,Somebody’s in the kitchen telling strangers they’re the only ones who really see,Two kids on the balcony trading smoke and stories they’ll forget by spring,While in the crowded living room three near-strangers dance like it actually means something.
ChorusLast party of the year, borrowed glitter, borrowed time,We’re all half broken, half on fire, pretending it’s by design,Counting down with crooked voices, clinging to whoever’s near,If this is how it ends, I’ll take it—These cheap lights, these loud hearts, this fear,Last party of the year,And somehow we’re still here.
Verse 3Photos on the table from the years we didn’t know we’d miss,One face gone, the laughter dips, then climbs back up on a half-true quip and a clumsy kiss,Someone in the corner lists the things they swear they’ll finally change come spring,You nod along, hold up your drink, and secretly hope they get every damn thing.
BridgeWhen the floor’s all cups and confetti and the ride-shares light the street,When the last hug hangs a second longer, tired arms and heavy feet,You stand alone inside the wreckage, hear the silence softly ring,Every stain and crumpled napkin proof that you were part of something breathing.
ChorusLast party of the year, borrowed glitter, borrowed time,We’re all half broken, half on fire, pretending it’s by design,Counting down with crooked voices, clinging to whoever’s near,If this is how it ends, I’ll take it—These cheap lights, these loud hearts, this fear,Last party of the year,And somehow we’re still here.
OutroWhen the lights are off and the echo fades, you stand there in the dark and grin,Thinking if the new year wants to find you,this is the mess it has to walk in,Last party of the year behind you,same old shadows up ahead,But you’ll remember how it felt tonightto be this tiredand not quite dead.
