Louis Barabbas - Waiting for Bad News lyrics

Artist: Louis Barabbas

album: Youth


I'm waiting for bad news to come
Here on my own
I know which way it's coming from
I've left every single light on
And the doors wide open
I'm hoping
For bad news to come
...
I'm waiting for bad news to come
My toes frozen numb
Teeth bared to the gums
Some things will always go wrong
But some go nowhere
I don't care
I'm still waiting for
Bad news to come
For someday or someone
To somehow be begun
It's all new here yet nothing seems young
And everything wrong
I long for bad news
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
What did you have to go and need me for?
...
I'm waiting for bad news to come
Dismantling the hours as they roll on and on and on
Pondering the deeds left undone
The words spoken but not sung
While I'm waiting for bad news to come
There's more grey in your eyes
Than there is in your hair
We've got plenty of time
I just don't know where
And it had to be you
But did it have to be now
And did it have to be here
With bad news coming round?
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
What did you have to go and need me for?
...
Now bad news sits outside
And taps on the glass
It says be true to my memory
Don't be true to my past
And as the poetry of adolescence
Meets the bullet points of adulthood
There are no signposts, just suggestions
And none of them any good
So we wake without desire
And turn our collars up to the rain
Because bad news seems a lot better
Than always just staying the same
And now the lights are all fading
And I'm tired of explaining
I'm just waiting and waiting
And waiting and waiting
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
What did you have to go and need me for?
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
I just wanted you to want me darling
What did you have to go and need me for?
