Emotionally Pending (Indie) by Webdragon

[Intro]

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Ran into you at the traffic light,
You waved like we were still alright.
Green turned yellow, I froze in place,
Missed my turn just to watch your face.

Bought a donut I didn’t need,
Still paid extra for the guilt and grease.
I’m doing great, can’t you tell by me?
I rehearse that lie religiously.

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t miss you — I miss the noise,
The stupid fights, the broken toys.
It’s quiet now and that’s the curse,
‘Cause peace somehow just hurts way worse.

[Chorus]
(Hey!)
I’m okay, just emotionally pending,
Smile unbending.
Funny how goodbye keeps never ending.

(Hey!)
Let’s keep it light, don’t make it real,
I’ll fake the heal — you fake the deal.
Yeah, I’m doing fine — until you speak.

[Verse 2]
Your name still pops in my autocorrect,
Like my phone’s got trust issues yet.
I hear our song in a grocery store,
Singing heartbreak by aisle four.

Your friends say you’re “in a good place,”
I hope it’s true — I hope it’s fake.
‘Cause if you’re happy without me there,
That means I lost this fair and square.

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t stalk you — I just check in,
Like concern isn’t a loaded sin.
I’ve moved on in theory, not practice,
I’m cured except for the damage.

[Chorus]
(Hey!)
I’m okay, just emotionally pending,
Smile unbending.
Funny how goodbye keeps never ending.

(Hey!)
Let’s keep it light, don’t make it real,
I’ll fake the heal — you fake the deal.
Yeah, I’m doing fine — until you speak.

[Bridge – Stripped Acoustic, Half-Time Feel]
[Soft]
I boxed you up in “lessons learned,”
But cracked it open when it burned.
I tell myself I’m over it,
Then trip on every memory.

[Build]
I want you happy — far away,
I want you gone — but here to stay.
I hope you miss me just a bit,
Not enough to ruin what you fixed.

[Final Chorus]
(Hey!)
I’m okay, just emotionally pending,
Still pretending.
Love’s a scar that keeps on mending.

(Hey!)
Let’s keep it light, don’t make it real,
I’ll fake the heal — you fake the deal.
Yeah, I’m doing fine — until you speak.

[Outro – Gang Vocals + Big Drum Fills]

(Whoa-oh-oh, I’m good, I swear!)
(Whoa-oh-oh, just don’t get near!)
(Whoa-oh-oh, still over you — yeah!)
