Drop
Waiting
Waiting
Verse 1
Paper plates
Soggy under plastic chairs
Rotting cake sitting in the midday glare
I blew the candles out alone
Watching every number turn to stone
No calls on the line
Not a single person arrived on time
Pre-Chorus
The lawn is wide
The gates are open wide
The house is empty inside
Chorus
Nobody came
I shouted till the walls forgot my name
Nobody came
Walking through the yard in the pouring rain
Looking for a sign
Begging for a sign
Left behind
Just left behind
Post-Chorus
No one
No one
Oh oh oh
Verse 2
Stupid hats
Crushed beneath my heavy boot
Tearing up the invitations at the root
Confetti in the mud
Tastes like copper tastes like salt and blood
Staring at the fence
Trying to make sense
Pre-Chorus
The lawn is wide
The gates are open wide
The house is empty inside
Chorus
Nobody came
I shouted till the walls forgot my name
Nobody came
Walking through the yard in the pouring rain
Looking for a sign
Begging for a sign
Left behind
Just left behind
Drop
Left behind
Nobody came
Empty inside
Nobody
Bridge
Maybe they forgot the street
Maybe they forgot to eat
Maybe they just hate my face
Clean the table
Clear the table
Kill the table
Silence is the loudest sound I ever heard
Chorus
Nobody came
I shouted till the walls forgot my name
Nobody came
Walking through the yard in the pouring rain
Looking for a sign
Begging for a sign
Left behind
Just left behind
Drop
Nobody
No one here
Nothing left
Nobody came
Left behind
