Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Three o'clock and I’m sitting on the curb again
Checking my watch, wondering where the hell you been
You swore on your life that you’d show up on time today
But your "five minutes out" is just a game that you play
It’s a cycle of static, a broken-down machine
The same old movie on a dirty TV screen.

[Chorus]
So keep your excuses, I’m over the wait
You’re a master of "sorry" but a little too late
I’m cutting the anchor, I’m finding the shore
'Cause I don’t want to carry your weight anymore
Yeah, the friendship is sinking, I’m letting it go
You’re the star of a one-man, self-sabotage show!

[Verse 2]
You blame it on luck or the "vibe" of the room
But you’re just a spark in a house full of gloom
I told you to change, told you "fix up your act"
But you’re allergic to truth and you’re allergic to fact
I’m tired of the drama, I’m tired of the debt
Of being the only one holding the net.

[Chorus]
So keep your excuses, I’m over the wait
You’re a master of "sorry" but a little too late
I’m cutting the anchor, I’m finding the shore
'Cause I don’t want to carry your weight anymore
Yeah, the friendship is sinking, I’m letting it go
You’re the star of a one-man, self-sabotage show!

[Bridge]
Is it lonely up there on your pedestal of lies?
Watching the bridges burn under the skies?
I used to have your back, I used to be the one
But the ink is all dry and the damage is done...

The damage is done!
THE DAMAGE IS DONE!

[Chorus]
So keep your excuses, I’m over the wait
You’re a master of "sorry" but a little too late
I’m cutting the anchor, I’m finding the shore
'Cause I don’t want to carry your weight anymore
Yeah, the friendship is sinking, I’m letting it go
You’re the star of a one-man, self-sabotage show!

You’re on your own!
(Yeah, you're on your own!)
Check the caller ID...
I’m gone!
