Benched Lyrics by NNAMDÏ

Please Have A Seat

2022

[Chorus]
I was up late waiting for your call
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call
That was blind faith, trusting someone new
End up getting bruised, broken from the fall

[Verse 1]
I got all dressed up just to be stood up
Just my luck, but this time, I really felt like shit
That's enough to make anybody melt down

[Chorus]
I was up late waiting for your call
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call
Watch the clock count seconds on the wall (Seconds on the wall)
Minutes turned to hours (Minutes turned to hours), hours turned me sour (Hours turned me sour)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I was up late waiting for your call
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call
Every soul left checking on their phones (Checking on their phones)
End up meeting ghosts, empty and alonе

[Verse 2]
Now I'm all worn down from the ghosts around
As I watch them fade in and out my lifе
And it's not like they didn't show me signs before

[Chorus]
I was up late waiting for your call (There's a ghost in the room)
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call (There's a ghost in the room)
That was blind faith, trusting someone new (There's a ghost in the room)
End up getting bruised, broken from the fall (There's a ghost)
I was up late waiting for your call (There's a ghost in the room)
Waiting for your call, waiting for your call (There's a ghost in the room)
That was blind faith, trusting someone new (There's a ghost in the room)
End up getting bruised, broken from the fall (There's a ghost in the room)

[Bridge]
Nothing's there
Nothing's there at all

[Outro]
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost, I was up late)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost, I was up late)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost in the room)
There's a ghost in the room (There's a ghost)
