Concrete Lyrics

One, two, one, two, three, four

If the words that we spoke enough
'Cause the pubs are empty and they're closing up
He's spitting spite as fast as saliva
But with the prose of a standard English drunk, she says
"I hope that saltwater ruins...

   this is a longshotbut i think this is a song where a boy and a girl are in a relationship, The boy decides to go out for a drink with his friends. They take the drinks home and play party games , Random games untill they decided to play a game like seven minutes in heaven or spin the bottle. another girl gets picked and someone Records them making out with each other. they send it to the girl and she's PISSED . She calls the guy and basically screams at him hence the lyrics. "I hope the saltwater ruins your clothes and i hope you spend the rest of life sleeping alone i hope the problems that make your life harder, sit stubborn in your stomatch like your kidney stones" he replys screaming back "All this, over a kiss? you werent there, why are you pressed by this?" She gets pissed off and takes the bus to the girls house to fight with her and the boy. hence the lyrics "So pissed off march up to the bus station with pissed off eyes glazed with early conversaions" they fight with eachother when she gets here and the boy breaks up with her hence the lyrics "You wont get what you need, you know its all just the same its all just a game if i had it my way id sleep on the concrete" he leaves the party early and goes to a bar to drink his feelings away which is the last part of the song

   A song about a drunken confrontation in a comical setting where the ex is the one that left, but cannot get over the narrator getting over her. She insults him in all of the aggressive parts, and is threatened to be kicked out. Shes completely inebriated and continues to yell and make a scene at the narrator. Maybe it was instigated by the narrator showing up at her favorite bar, "i'm still here, I'm not leaving."
   
   Alternatively the narrator could be a boyfriend who kissed another girl and regrets it. following her around trying to make it right, but shes having none of it and tells him "if i had it my way you'd sleep on the concrete floor." making a scene in public

   i think this song is about a girl who goes “crazy” when she finds out her ex/ the guy she likes kissed another girl/is with someone else (all this over a kiss. you weren’t there so why are you pressed by this?). i think that the singer is supposed to be accurately representing what happened but i think it’s also possible that it’s supposed to be like a guy being like “omg my ex is sooooo crazy” and she’s literally just normally upset over something reasonable idk.
