lyrics

Girls in the Neighbourhood, why do I have to wait?
I don't want to be myself but I have to anyway
I sit on the couch all day wishing I had more time
I tell you I hated the way you used to say my name

I was waiting for you then
Am I waiting for you now? I don't know
The way you spit your hate at me, it felt so good
Unattended baggage all alone
Am I here now? Are you on the phone?
Can I go outside yet? Or would you chase me down?
It doesn't make a difference now

Girls in the Neighbourhood, why do I have to wait?
I don't want to be myself but I have to anyway
I sit on the couch all day wishing I had more time
I tell you I hated the way you used to say my name

I was waiting for you then
Am I waiting for you now? I don't know
The way you spit your hate at me, it felt so good
Unattended baggage all alone
Am I here now? Are you on the phone?
Can I go outside yet? Or would you chase me down?
It doesn't make a difference now

And I can't believe I let you slip away like that
Didn't know I needed you, 'til you got up and left
Midnight messages to let you know how I felt
And now I'm stuck to deal with the hate I have for myself

Girls in the Neighbourhood, why do I have to wait?
I don't want to be myself but I have to anyway
I sit on the couch all day wishing I had more time
I tell you I hated the way you used to say my name
