this is a super demo version of this song. i've recorded probs 40 vocal takes and they all sound pretty shitty. this was the best one. there's also a lead guitar part with another melody but i'm not adding that in until i can do a better cut.
i wrote the chords for this song abt seven years ago when i was listening to 'radio radio' by elvis costello a lot. the original lyrics to this song were abt throwing metal.
lyrics
i went to a party
i heard u would be there
ur friends all said u were going
i don't know anyone else here
south 2nd and roebling
i rode alone on the g here
outside it's snowing
i wanna leave but i don't dare
cos i'm tired of being alone
i wanna try being with
i don't wanna get my way
if this is all i get
and there was something that u said
made me think u might be interested
it's been almost three months
that awful night in gowanus
and that horrible fight
that was the worst night of my life
i thought it would be best
if we just gave it a rest
but i don't know who i was kidding
that i wouldn't get this feeling
whenever ur around
i find i'm slipping right back in
and i never wanna be someone
who hurts u again
i got so many things i wanna say
i should've said before things got this way
so hurry up
hurry up, baby
would u hurry up?
hurry up
hurry up, baby
would u hurry up?
i'm tired of being alone
and this time i've got my mind made up
hurry up
hurry up, baby
would u hurry up?
time's standing still for me now
so i guess i'll just sit
and remember this
cos in any minute
u'll be walking in
and we'll both start over again
it's three in the morning
and everyone's leaving
i don't know where i'm going
i don't know what i'm doing
and that's when i see u
and the guy that's with u
got ur arm around his shoulder
trying to catch a cab
we always used to take the train
but things have changed i guess
i can't turn away
so i'll just wait
for the car that's gonna come take u away
so hurry up
hurry up, baby
would u hurry up?
hurry up
hurry up, baby
would u hurry up?
it's late and i'm tired
i wanna go to bed and never get back up
hurry up
hurry up, baby
would u hurry up?
