right here waiting

90s baby, black coffee, and Redbone

Pretty brunette boy with oldest child syndrome

You may have forgotten all the things you said and plans we made

But I won’t

No, I won’t.

You made a bit of a mess of things but I’ll choose to

blame my headache on the weather instead of you

October, for the first time,

doesn’t feel like new beginnings

It’s all over, how dare you

I used to love this time of year

You’d think that I would know better

Instead of imagining things

But if you change your mind (like you won’t do)

I’ll be right here waiting

A friend said your name and I lost the little air I had

The fire burned but for a moment I was warm again

And you won’t see it, but I’ll wait for you like a kid

with my nose pressed to the glass

like you’re ever coming back

Just a boredom cure, a closed bedroom door, playing pretend

If that’s all it was, I hope that you got what you wanted

October, for the first time,

Doesn’t feel like new beginnings

It’s all over, how dare you

I used to love this time of year

You’d think that I would know better

Instead of imagining things

But if you change your mind (like you won’t do)

I’ll be right here waiting

I’ll pretend your lacklustre apology

Came with flowers and the words “I’m sorry”

Fighting to keep my place on your list of priorities

But my hands are tired

You went cold so I stopped trying

But I’m so tired of being left behind

October, for the first time,

Doesn’t feel like new beginnings

It’s all over, how dare you

I used to love this time of year

You’d think that I would know better

Instead of imagining things

But if you change your mind (like you won’t do)

I’ll be right here waiting

October, for the first time,

Doesn’t feel like new beginnings

But if you change your mind (like you won’t do)

I’ll be right here waiting

I’ll be right here waiting.
