Lyrics

I know you’re lying when you say you’re unhappy

I doubt your claim of unhappiness

'Cause I know that you’re not

I am aware that you are not genuinely unhappy

I know you want me to want you but just know that playing with matches leaves lots of

You desire my affection, but be aware that toying with emotions can lead to emotional pain

Tear stains on my pillow and stories to tell my mom

Your actions result in sorrow and stories to share with others

Don’t say you have mixed feelings when you know she’s the one you want

Don't pretend to be conflicted when you clearly desire someone else


I’m just hoping for a better day

Expressing hope for a better future

At least better than yesterday

Wishing for a day that surpasses the previous one

See the shadows on your back

Observing challenges or burdens you carry

Wish these colors would turn to black

Desiring a transformation of your situation

I’m just waiting for the time to pass

Waiting for time to elapse

For the angels to bring you back

Hoping for a divine intervention or positive change

For day to turn to night

Anticipating a transition from day to night

For the monsters to come and bite you

Expressing a desire for difficulties or challenges to confront you


I know you messed up when you told me to wait

Recognizing a mistake when told to wait

'Cause I will not wait for you

Refusing to wait for someone who erred

I know you haven’t told your girlfriend where you’ve been

Acknowledging undisclosed information to your significant other

I can’t believe you

Expressing disbelief in your actions

You told me all your dreams and I listened to them all

Listening to your dreams and seeing them fall apart

Painted me some pictures and then tore down all my walls

Having emotional barriers broken down and betrayed


I’m just hoping for a better day

Similar to line 7

At least better than yesterday

Similar to line 8

See the shadows on your back

Similar to line 9

Wish these colors would turn to black

Similar to line 10

I’m just waiting for the time to pass

Similar to line 11

For the angels to bring you back

Similar to line 12

For day to turn to night

Similar to line 13

For the monsters to come and bite you

Similar to line 14


I think the problem is I try too hard

Self-reflection on trying too hard in a relationship

Blaming this on me when it’s not my fault

Rejecting blame for issues not caused by oneself

Go and shut me out leave me in the dark

Asking to be left alone in a difficult situation

You left me but you were already gone

Realizing abandonment despite already feeling emotionally distant


I’m just hoping for a better day

Similar to line 7

At least better than yesterday

Similar to line 8

See the shadows on your back

Similar to line 9

Wish these colors would turn to black

Similar to line 10

I’m just waiting for the time to pass

Similar to line 11

For the angels to bring you back

Similar to line 12

For day to turn to night

Similar to line 13

For the monsters to come and bite you

Similar to line 14


I’m just waiting for the time to pass

Repeated anticipation of time passing and positive change

For the angels to bring you back

Repeated hope for divine intervention

For day to turn to night

Repeated anticipation of transition from day to night

For the monsters to come and bite you

Repeated desire for challenges to confront you

Come and bite you

Reiteration of the desire for challenges or difficulties
