It's a fall night but the scenery simply isn't reaching me
So I won't let you have me 'til you play nice
I'll be patient while I wait here with your lifeline on my mind
All night I wandered through the avenues I'm asking you
To meet me somewhere but you didn't have the nerve
To say you weren't coming so I wasn't sure, but I should've known better
Hang tight, I idle by the evening while my hope dies
The breeze a final cold breath on this whole mess
The stars too far away to see my heart wreck, alone again
You have plenty to look forward to
It isn't so bad, if you could just say that
This inessential moment where you're feeling sad
Well everyone feels that, if you could only say that
But no you left me out, the sun was going down
And I'm not going in until I feel okay again
Jealous and annoyed that I cannot enjoy
The turning of the leaves happening right in front of me
While everyone's dumb in love, my heart is cold and shut
Expressionless and numb, waiting in the dust
Where the hell have you been 'cause I'd let you right back in
Forget what you have done if we can be in love
Now I can't remember how I used to sleep at night
I come alive as the moon is coming up and it feels like
Visiting a house you used to live inside
Dimensions haven't changed it must be you that has
And time itself has warped you and eroded through
So now you think there must be something wrong with you
Like you're the only person this has ever happened to
