[Verse 1]
They always do
They come around when it starts to go down
Now I'm finally through
Searching for truth in a fictional town
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t want your paper
No, I don't need your attention
Just say something and mean it
Promise me then keep it, keep it
[Chorus]
(I got) People coming just to go
(I know) High school kids that all went ghost
(But my) Friends and family they all know
I'm waiting tables
Waiting for tables to turn
[Verse 2]
Feels overdue
Feels like the old isn’t meant for the new
The revenue, yeah
Isn't enough to leave the avenue
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't want your paper
No, I don't need your attention
Just say something and mean it
Promise me then keep it, keep it
[Chorus]
(I got) People coming just to go
(I know) High school kids that all went ghost
(But my) Friends and family they all know
I'm waiting tables
Waiting for tables to turn
[Bridge]
(I'm waiting tables)
(I'm waiting for tables to turn)
(I'm waiting tables)
(I’m waiting for tables to turn)
(I’m waiting tables)
(I'm waiting for tables to turn)
(I’m waiting tables)
(I'm waiting tables)
[Chorus]
(I got) People coming just to go
(I know) High school
Kids that all went ghost
(But my) Friends and
Family they all know
I'm waiting tables
Waiting for tables
[Outro]
(I got) People coming just to go
(I know) High school
Kids that all went ghost
(But my) Friends and
Family they all know
I'm waiting tables
Waiting for tables to turn
