Heatwave by Nominee Lyrics

I could complain
That I’m not good enough
And I could say that I’m stuck
But where would that get me when you say that I’m only overthinking and over reacting?
Where would that get me when you say that I’m only doing this to myself?
I’m holding off because they said it gets better
But how much can I take?
I’m holding off because they said it gets better
But how much longer can I wait?
How much longer can I wait?
You’re only here out of obligation
If we weren’t flesh and blood
Would you even be here next to me if I wasn’t your youngest son?
Because you’re here right now but where were you when that loneliness set in?
When the desperation took control and I could take anymore of it
I’m holding off because they said it gets better
But how much can I take?
I’m holding off because they said it gets better
But how much longer can I wait?
How much longer can I wait?
It was the hottest summer that I could ever remember
With no one around to say it could get better
So I called the short list of the people I’d missed
And I told them I loved them but I’m not letting myself get over this
