Fashionably Late - Falling In Reverse

Lights start dimming Balloons on the ceiling And you're still nowhere in sight The DJ knows how I'm feeling somehow Could cut the tension in the room With a knife I got all dressed up hoping you'd notice Rehearsed this a thousand times in my head Worked myself up thinking that you'd be here Hoping you're just fashionably late You'll walk in as the last song starts to play And hold me in your arms as we start to sway I've been dreaming all about this every New Year's Day I watch them dancing They walk holding hands and I start to worry it's passing us by No resolutions I just wanted you but The clock is ticking it's way onto midnight I grab my jacket now I'm heading out Everybody's starting to count it down Thought I caught a glimpse of you through the crowd Hoping you're just fashionably late You'll walk in as the last song starts to play And hold me in your arms as we start to sway I've been dreaming all about this every New Year's Confetti starts to rain down to the floor My eyes can't pull away from the front door Oh it can't be only me who feels this way I've been dreaming all about this every New Year's Day Smokes getting heavy I'm hypnotised Head full of red wine we're wasting time Thought that you'd made it My heart is breaking You were meant to be mine And hold me in your arms as we start to sway I've been dreaming all about this every New Year's Confetti covers everything in sight Lovers disappear into the night Oh it can't be only me who feels this way I've been dreaming all about this every god damn day I've been dreaming dreaming every New Year's Day

Brother why'd you have to go? You left us all so soon Remember that song I wrote about your family years ago? Well, they're waiting for you to come home What do I do? What do I say? And dad tells me to pray So I've prayed and prayed, but the hurt won't go away The pain gets worse, it never stops And I've asked the Lord for us to swap I beg and plead 'cause you have kids to feed Why is it always stormy weather? And brother, tell me if it all gets better Why did you leave? Why did you die? You finally made your brother cry I know you're watching over us tonight And I hope you're watching over us tonight I'm sorry I missed your call I wasn't there for you at all And know I thought it through, maybe if I answered you That you would still be here, all along Now no more calls, can't you see? I took for granted family And once they're gone, you'll never get that back No more laughs, no more hugs So hold on to the ones you love Your soul is free, I love you Anthony And why is it always stormy weather? And brother, tell me, when does it get better? Why did you leave? Why did you die? You finally made your brother cry I know you're watching over from above So hold on to the ones you love
