Halloween

You just got
You got all the time in the world
And then it's gone
I don't know how to feel about that

I heard there's a halloween party in the 'burbs
It's only mid-september, these excuses getting worse
But life is short
Got a group message saying hold that thought
So the bus stop got
Three ghost, four schoolgirls and one vampire
Piss the driver off, talking like we on fire
Hop out around these ugly warehouses
Sneak inside of one straight out of the wire
And go all out, kids trying to ball out
Like you've never seen America but you a God now
Can't do a thing wrong
She tried to fuck the DJ to stop him playing those awful songs
Micky pooped a molly, had him foaming at the mouth
Thought that he was fooling til he went and passed out
On the dancefloor, still wearing that ghost decor
And all these fuckin' strangers form a circle, all surprised
Standing there frozen while these young kids rush in
Watch their best friend die, trying to roll him up on his side
But what you really know about
CPR, cool him off, keep him warm, hold him up
Grab his hand, squeeze it like, I don't know what the fuck I should do
Cause I was raised on TV just like you

I been waiting for you
I been waiting for you for so long
I been waiting for you
Darling I been waiting for so long

So like
'98 Ford, that's as good as an ambulance
Threw him in the back seat, just trying to Google Map a hospital
Crying "how is this possible"
I wish I knew but we, light speed, white knuckles on the wheel
Running red lights, trying to get my head right for real
White tires screaming, girls screaming in the dark
As if the world might rip apart
And then we pull up out the front of this hella crowded ER
Then they see how fucked up we are, rush him past the triage
Seven kids in a cramped hallway shouting "doc will he be okay"
The room flood with tired men all trying to get his clothes off
his body up to all these robots, what a shame there's no God
Cause I think of all we'd do if only he could make it through

I been waiting for you
I been waiting for you for so long
I been waiting for you
Darling I been waiting for so long

And it's all quiet now, machines we don't understand beeping
She like "I hope he just sleeping", but you know
I had the strangest feeling, he had this look in his eyes ever since last weekend
Woke up a week later, ain't remember a thing
His mumma's legs gave way when he opened them things
All he said was "I had this dream
I met a man in white who looked exactly like me, saying

I been waiting for you
I been waiting for you for so long
I been waiting for you
Darling I been waiting for so long"
