About the work
Dressed for Nothing – Def Ferrer
[Intro - Falada]
Some nights, you don’t cry because you’re weak.
You cry because you kept pretending you were fine.
I waited, all dressed up, just to be forgotten.
These are the nights I should have slept.
[Verse 1]
I stood alone under neon lights, your name still glowing on my phone.
Eight seconds stretched into a lifetime, but your silence chilled me to the bone.
You said just a little ache,
But hours passed and trains went by.
Lipstick fading, heels starting to ache,
Still I stay, chasing the light.
[Pre-Chorus]
You made me wait in a dream you saw,
Wrapped in silver and promises cold.
Dressed for a night we'll never know.
These are the nights I should have let go.
These are the nights I should have slept.
[Chorus]
I walk that platform back and forth,
Counting regrets like subway lights.
Love shouldn’t feel like this endless wait,
Like dressing up for empty nights.
I look for meaning in the stillness,
In the flicker of fluorescent blues.
But truth hits hardest in silence.
I was always just your excuse.
[Verse 2]
You made me wait in a dream you saw,
Wrapped in silver and promises cold.
Dressed for a night we'll never know.
These are the nights I should have let go.
These are the nights I should have slept.
[Bridge]
How many times did I let love hurt?
How many times did I silence the doubt?
Tonight I see myself clearer,
Not broken, just done.
[Chorus]
You made me wait in a dream you sold,
Wrapped in silver and promises cold.
But I won’t stand where it goes still.
These are the nights I take back home.
These are the nights I rise along.
[Outro - Falada]
These are the nights I should have slept.
I rise along.
