Waiting For Hogwarts
02:55

Kings cross is calling me
I can hear the whistle
Those tracks across the sea
With Harry, Luna, & Neville
I keep looking to the sky
Searching the clouds
I've been trying to spy
An owl flying proud
(Prechorus)
A piece of me
Will always feel
I'm meant to be where
Hogwarts is real
Chorus
I'm still Waiting for Hogwarts
Still waiting for that train
I'm still waiting for Hogwarts
And the letter that never came
Still waiting for Hogwarts
So I can leave behind
A life that I have always felt
Was never meant to be mine
In some other life
My trunk is packed
In some other life
I hear the trolley clack
(Prechorus)
A piece of me
Will always imagine
I can walk through a wall
To that red shiny engine
Chorus
I'm still Waiting for Hogwarts
Still waiting for that train
I'm still waiting for Hogwarts
And the letter that never came
Still waiting for Hogwarts
So I can leave behind
A life that I have always felt
Was never meant to be mine
Bridge
Cause what do you do
When your heart doesn't fit
When you're stuck in a world
Not filled with magic
It does not do
to dwell on dreams
and forget to live, it’s
never as good as it seems
Chorus
I'm not waiting for Hogwarts
We'll create it here
I'm not waiting for Hogwarts
We're got parks with butter beer
I'm not waiting for Hogwarts
Cause of books and friends
I'll listen to wizard rock
until the very end
until the very end
until the very end

Geek Out

I used to think I was alone
Loved vampires and wizards
I wish I had known
How many people felt just like me
Living with passion
They want to set free
Maybe you love music
maybe you love sports
Maybe you’re like Tina
obsessed with a horse
It’s all different from you to me
but really in the end
there’s a commonality
Chorus
Everyone is a geek
We all have our passions
So stand up and speak
Let your freak flag fly
Fan girl with pride
Cause everyone is a geek
I have many friends
Who live by the stage
Theater gives them joy
that should never change
I have some friends
Surrounded by color
make-up fascinates them
they geek out like no other
Where are the book nerds?
You travel not by a plane
You live many lives
All inside your brain
I have many friends
Who love the outdoors
They’ll climb up a mountain
And never be bored
Chorus
Everyone is a geek
We all have our passions
So stand up and speak
Let your freak flag fly
Fan girl with pride
Cause everyone is a geek
Bridge
Geek out
geek out
let your nerd side out
Geek out
geek out
Don’t be in doubt
Geek out
geek out
Don’t live without
Your passion in life
It helps you survive
Cause everyone is a geek

Monster

My friends don't know
I won't let you in
A year at this school
I still hide my skin
But you would hate me
You wouldn't see a kid
If I could tell you
If you know what I did
(Pre chorus)
But I am here
And I hope you can see
past this monster
Inside of me
(Chorus)
I'm sorry for all the times I lied
When couldn't tell you
I'm sorry for being so scared
Of you if you knew
I'm sorry for being in my head
So much, for so long
But I'm not that strong
I constantly torture
myself In my head
I rip and tear
myself to shreds
Until my mind
Looks just like
The face you see
By your side
(Pre chorus)
I say that I'm bad
And you just smile
Say I'm wrong
But I just stare at the tile
(Chorus)
I'm sorry for all the times I lied
When couldn't tell you
I'm sorry for being so scared
Of you if you knew
I'm sorry for being in my head
So much, for so long
I know it may seem like it
But I'm not that strong
(Bridge)
I've been lying for so long
Now I must choose
should I continue
Or to reveal the truth
Am I more of a monster
Because I have lied
Or because of the wolf
That I am trying to hide
(Oh)
(Chorus)
I'm sorry for all the times I lied
When I couldn't tell you
I'm sorry for being so scared
Of you if you knew
I'm sorry for being in my head
So much, for so long
I know it may seem like it
But I'm not that strong

Verse
So you said lily
We've been friends forever
But I can think of something better
Do you feel the same
And I said no
I think you’re really nice
but I don’t need to roll the dice
I just know
And you said fine
we stayed friends and it’s cool
didn’t act like a tool
And that lasted for a time
Pre-chorus:
but now you are
Obsessed with me
what happened to my no
are you kidding me
Chorus:
I said no
that doesn’t mean maybe later
I could go for a date or
want to be asked again
But I said no
If I had changed my mind
my feelings changed over time
then I would tell you
cause you’re my friend
So please stop saying
that you like me
cause I don’t like you even slightly
I just want this to end
Verse
It’s little things
how you call me mudblood
Want a mask and a hood
And a dark mark
Now you are acting
Like I'm trying to hurt you
Like this is about you
Now that I'm dating James
Pre-chorus
your patronus
Is a now a doe
Don't you realize
that’s creepy though?
Chorus:
I said no
that doesn’t mean maybe later
I could go for a date or
want to be asked again
But I said no
If I had changed my mind
or my feelings changed over time
then I would tell you
cause you’re my friend
So please stop saying
that you like me
cause I don’t like you even slightly
I just want this to end
Bridge:
You are a person
who doesn't stop to think
about the consequences
your actions bring
now you are begging
for my life to be saved
But not my son
you should be ashamed
Chorus:
I said no
that doesn’t mean maybe later
I could go for a date or
want to be asked again
But I said no
If I had changed my mind
my feelings changed over time
then I would tell you
cause you’re my friend
So please stop saying
that you like me
cause I don’t like you even slightly
I just want this to end

Until The Very End

(Verse)
I didn’t want to know you at first
I didn’t know what I was missing
I wasn’t as well versed
I didn’t know not to judge
I could only see your cover
Just needed a nudge
Then I got to know you
Dug in a little more
I started to realize
what was in store
(Chorus)
I realized you are the first
The one I will always love
The one I will never let go of
You lead me
to where I belong
You were my first friend
Until the very end
(Verse)
I couldn’t wait to read two
the next step in this tale
Your magic helped me through
I learned everything I could
I dove into your world
You were my childhood
I memorized every line
fell under your spell
Your adventures pulled me
out of my shell
(Chorus)
Cause you are the first
The one I will always love
The one I will never let go of
You lead me
to where I belong
You were my first friend
Until the very end
(Bridge)
It’s been some time now
that you’ve been away
But cause of you I know
dark times will never stay
I keep Harry
Near to my heart
And I’ll be here the day
When again you will start
(Chorus)
Cause you are the first
The one I will always love
The one I will never let go of
You lead me
to where I belong
You were my first friend
Until the very end
Until the very end
Until the very end

Leaving Isn't Going Home

Verse
The train whistle blows
And I know it's time to go
Down the train I drag my feet
Until I find my seat
With all the excitement
Of packing and appointments
It hadn't really hit
And it's hard to admit
Pre-chorus
I don't really want to go
This is so much better than home
CHORUS
Leaving isn't going home
Not really, not really
I've got a taste of something new
And now I'm seeing clearly
home is where the heart is
And make no mistake
You'll find my heart
In that castle by a lake
Verse
I watch fields roll past
As the train moves fast
I can't believe this was real
It has been ideal
The memories won't fade
Of the friends I've made
The adventures we're shared
Nothing can compare
CHORUS
Leaving isn't going home
Not really, not really
I've got a taste of something new
And now I'm seeing clearly
home is where the heart is
And make no mistake
You'll find my heart
In that castle by a lake
Bridge
Who knows what happens next
Life is strange and complex
But I have more of a path
I can find my way back
CHORUS
Leaving isn't going home
Not really, not really
I've got a taste of something new
And now I'm seeing clearly
home is where the heart is
And make no mistake
You'll find my heart
In that castle by a lake

Thanks for being here!
If you like The Weirdos Are Out, you may also like:
supported by 9 fans who also own “Waiting For Hogwarts”
It's so hard to pick a favourite! Ashley has such a capable, soul-stirring voice, and I love the concept of this album as a setlist on wizard radio. I do love 'Hey Dude', but in the end I have to pick 'Bring Them Home', because it's such a tender, gorgeous song about one of my favourite characters.
