Waiting Room Lyrics

If you were a teacher, I would fail your class
take it over and over til you noticed me,
If you were a waiting room, I would never see a doctor
I would sit there with my first aid kit and bleed

I want to be the power ballad that lifts you up and hold you down,
I wanna be the broken love song that feeds your misery,
And I can wish all I want, but it won't bring us together,
Plus I know whatever happens to me,
I know it's for the better

When broken bodies are washed ashore
Who am I to ask for more, more, more?
But you're breathing in my open mouth,
You're the gun in my lips that will blow my brains out

I want to make you drive all night just because I said maybe you should come over,
I want to make you fall in love as hard as my poor parents teenage daughter,
She'll be the best you ever had if you let her

I know it's for the better
'know it's for the better...

Cover art for Waiting Room lyrics by Phoebe Bridgers

I think this song is about waiting for someone never coming back. I think that she is waiting but it is never coming back. She wants the best for the person but wants to be apart of their lives. When she says " I know it's for the better" she is saying that she knows not being in that person's life is better but she still wants them. She just wants to show all the emotion she wants but can't because that person isn't there. When she says "I never grew up with you and you're not my waiting room" she is saying that she can no longer wait for that person anymore because it is only going to hurt her even more. she soon gets tired of waiting.
