Basement (Pay Attention)

(álbum: Red Like Crimson - 2018)

I've called your name so many times
Kept my eyes open until sunrise
No I can't get much sleep at night
How long do I have to wait?
I shouted you, you whispered by (whispered by)
What if each one of us doesn't match (doesn't match)
I'm losing patience, time to meet

I'm praying to you, the least you could do
Is pay your attention, to me
(Mmm)

I'm hurt, you're supposed to be there (to be there)
But it feels as though you do not care (do not care)
Don't know how much more I can bear
I assure me, I'll be okay
Not sure if you know why I'm in pain
Why do I even trust your name
I know that I should take some blame

But you weren't the same (you weren't the same)
That you keep me sane
So pay your attention, to me

Are you homeless? That's okay
Just know this, know to wait
I promise you'll be okay
Could be years, could be months, could be days
Got a basement you can rest in
Give me patience, you can fetch it
If you're wasted, please don't come in
This is secret, catch us jump in
Tie your laces, after the races
You will get there, you will make it
