(I was FaceTiming a friend while I was recording this so that’s who I’m talking to during those random pauses)
This song is a little different from most songs, it doesn’t follow the usual format of most songs (verse-chorus-bridge kinda thing). That’s because I wrote this as a poem at first and then I turned it into a song. I sent this to one of my friends before I posted it and they told me it sounded like that song by Billie Eilish (when the party’s over). I SWEAR I did not mean to do that, I actually hadn’t heard her full song until my friend told me this one sounded like it, so I looked it up and it does sound like it and uses the same chords just a few semitones lower so I apologize in advance. Didn’t know that while I was making and writing this song, but I was flattered that they told me it reminded them of her...cuz she is mad talented.

Lyrics:
Guess hypocrites don’t like to see
the outcomes of their fallacies.
You cut me then I watched you leave
before I got the chance to bleed.

You used me then you washed your hands,
so tell me is your conscience clean?
I guess men like them innocent,
Did my youth make it easy?

Keep running away from all your troubles,
no care for those who care for you.
And nobody knows when you’re coming back,
maybe that’s why no one waits for you.

(I) would’ve waited for you.
Been somewhere you could lay your head.
Take off whatever’s hurting you,
and lay it down upon my chest.

I’ve never seen such misery,
has it ever brought you to your knees?
You’re using false stupidity 
to cover up your cruelty.

I’ll add you to the memories,
all those mistakes I won’t admit.
Of all the lovers who’ve broken me,
no one’s fooled me like you did.

I know one day you will remember
the nights we spent in late November.
And when you do I hope you find
the courtesy of a goodbye.

(Me randomly talking to friend)

For other girls you plan to spite,
Please give them the kindness of a goodbye.

Hope you enjoy and cry to it with me
