Confidant

[Spoken Intro]

8AM

[Verse 1]

I awake from the comatose but the nurses never glance

Because I was asleep on my friend's sofa, they were going out to class

I ascended the stairs to find you, still lying in her bed

We had classes too but we just talked fragile till noon instead

[Refrain]

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

(Yeah, yeah, yеah)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2]

You laughеd at all my jokes, not because you'd understand

But because you were my home, built on stone instead of sand

And when you went away to stay in some foreign distant land

I still felt you in my brain, smiling, holding my hand

[Chorus]

You didn't want a boy to free you

You just needed a confidant (Needed a confidant)

Someone to understand you

Not just biding for their own wants (Biding for their own wants)

And I would be anything for you

Cause on those most chaotic nights (Needed a confidant)

You were my warm calming companion

Like the sweetest cup of chai

[Bridge]

We tied grass around our fingers

Faux Halloween night wedding

The grass would never last

But we didn't care for fancy things

I wrote two songs about our lives

And nights oh so fantastic

And from a Christmas cracker you got me a new ring made of plastic

I felt I lost that piece of us

When my mind began to fray

When you came home

I let our house fall into disarray

My ring fell down the drain

As I washed my twisted face

Because I let your essence go

I've not felt clean to this day

[Chorus]

You didn't want a boy to free you

You just needed a confidant (Needed a confidant)

Someone to understand you

Not just biding for their own wants (Biding for their own wants)

And I would be anything for you

Cause on those most chaotic nights (Needed a confidant)

You were my warm calming companion

Like the sweetest cup of chai
