​dontwaitforme Lyrics by VANISH

Familiar Faces

2019

[Verse]
I watch for hours as the clock ticks by
And focus on the patterns of the TV light, and I’m drunk
Waiting for time to pass me by (By)
Yeah
She said that “I can’t stand another night
Goddamn, would you please just look me in the eyes?”
But I’ve been fixated on ruining my life
I’ll purge myself of any happiness
Pack my bags and put ‘em on a sinking ship, and it’s lost
Somewhere under the waves
(Somewhere, somewhere under the waves)
Well, I’ve been lost on this vessel, seasick
I just can’t find my way home
Well, please let me go

[Outro]
Don’t wait, don’t wait forever (Don't wait)
Don’t wait for me, don’t wait for me (Wait for me)
Don’t wait, don’t wait forever (Don't wait)
Don’t wait for me, it’s too late for me (Late for me)
Too late, too late forever (Don't wait)
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me (Wait for me)
Too late, too late forever (Don't wait)
Don't wait for me, it's too late for me
