When my great isn't good enough
Maybe come back in a few
They take what they can get
Promise you'll have me too
Another five months feels like five years
They could always let go
Waiting for that callback
Knowing its gonna be no
It's all crashing down around me
Just short of acceptance they said
Cross my heart, there's a spot I'll take it
But you wanted them instead
Couldn't I be wrong
Was Putting my faith in
On a waitlist I'm on the edge with
Gonna take their sweet time determining
To tell me I'm good
But I'm not good for them
No the the odds were never in my favor
Not over but it feels like its failure
What to do until I get that letter
They tell me I'm good
But I'm not good for them
When I said I was all in
Oh I thought they would see
This year on my own and
What It does to me
Take it day by day
They might change their minds
But hope is a fickle thing
When that dream dies
It's all crashing down around me
Just short of acceptance they said
Cross my heart, there's spot I'll take it
But you wanted them instead
Couldn't I be wrong
Putting my faith in
On a waitlist I'm on the edge with
Gonna take their sweet time determining
To tell me I'm good
But I'm not good for them
No the the odds were never in my favor
Not over but it feels like its failure
What to do until I get that letter
They tell me I'm good
But I'm not good for them
You can tear me down
False promises galore
I'm not buying it
What else could I have done
My life was what you judged
But you denied it
Say it one more time
You're free write your name
Waitlisted
Waitlisted
Couldn't I be wrong
Putting my faith in
On a waitlist I'm on the edge with
Gonna take their sweet time determining
To tell me I'm good
But I'm not good for them
No the the odds were never in my favor
Not over but it feels like its failure
What to do until I get that letter
They tell me I'm good
But I'm not good for them
