Dirty Laundry

Nothing that good was ever gonna last
Or so you rationalized your fall
Nothing you did wrong, of course
A string of bad luck that's all
But you never learned to just stop digging
When you found yourself in a hole
You gotta know there's line between excess
And letting the good times roll

And the floodgates aren't so gracious
When your waters rise so high
But no one cared about your dirty laundry
Till you hung it all out to dry

You straight up ignored the warnings
When everything was heading south
And you sure did raise some eyebrows
With your foot stuck in your mouth
Maybe time will heal your ego
You're not the first one to kiss and tell
You can take a break from the spotlight
But you can't un-ring the bell

And now you've cast yourself the tragic hero
But pardon me if I don't cry
'Cause no one cared about your dirty laundry
Till you hung it all out to dry

We lived on the edge as little kids
In perilous rounds of truth or dare
Now the stakes are raised on the games we play
And we're quick to claim that life's unfair

Nothing like this can really last forever
It's all gotta come to an end
But if you had to it all over
You'd probably do it all over again
You know you're only fooling yourself
Trying to win at a loser's game
So don't look past your own reflection
Looking for someone to blame

'Cause the bridge you crossed was burning
Before you even reached the other side
And no one cared about your dirty laundry
Till you hung it all out to dry

No one cared about your dirty laundry
Till you hung yourself out to dry
