about

Mostly written on my commutes from Jersey City to NYC and back circa September 2011

lyrics

Day 1, last night was so much fun
Day 2, haven't heard from you
Day 3, starting to worry
Day 4, same as the day before
Day 5, are you still alive?
Day 6, better get over this
Day 7, will I see you again?
Day 8, it's too late, I can't wait

8 days of waiting for your call, guess I was too quick to fall
8 days of fretting, now onto forgetting, cause after 8 days your silence says it all

Maybe I was just naïve, I let myself believe
Something was there, you cared for me
Looking back I guess, it was only loneliness
Clearly it wasn't reality

8 days of waiting for your text, wondering when I'd hear from you next
8 days of checking, my nerves it was wrecking, but after 8 days I'm no longer perplexed
I guess that was your plan, but you could've manned up and told me we were parting ways
'Stead of letting me dangle here for 8 days, and I'm wondering...

What did I do, what did I say?
Is it because I went all the way?
Am I too fat, should I be thinner?
Should I have offered to pay for my dinner?
Am I too strange, am I too funny?
Is it because I don't have lots of money?
Am I too plain, am I too pretty?
Is it because I live in Jersey City?

Maybe it's okay, maybe I didn't like you anyway
It just felt that way, after all the cabernet
Any other day you'd be just another fish in the sea
Plenty of others out there who'd never dream of leaving me

8 days of waiting for your call, guess I was too quick to fall
8 days of fretting, now onto forgetting, cause after 8 days your silence says it all
8 days of waiting for your call, why was I so quick too fall?
8 days of waiting, yes, 8 days of waiting, after 8 days what am I even waiting for?
8 days of waiting
8 days of waiting
8 days of waiting
8 days of waiting
