The song "Bored In Bristol" by Alvvays seems to be about waiting for someone or something that may never come. The narrator appears to be willing to do whatever it takes to keep her lover happy, even if it costs her something. In the first verse, she says she is willing to pay any fine or call another ride to make things right. She asks to know the rules so that she can be okay with playing the waiting game.

In the chorus, the repeated line "Always waiting" seems to highlight the frustration with constantly waiting for something to happen or change. The second verse suggests that the narrator is willing to take pills to pass the time while waiting. She is willing to do anything to avoid boredom and find something to do.

The bridge seems to suggest that the narrator is ready to leave and move on from her current situation. She is taking the last train and leaving in a fog. There is no one that can stop her from leaving, and no one can follow.

The pre-chorus line "If there's a role, I'll play it" may suggest that the narrator is willing to play any part or do whatever is needed to keep her relationship going, even if it means constantly waiting for something that may never happen.

Overall, "Bored In Bristol" seems to be about the frustration of waiting and staying in a situation that is unfulfilling. The narrator is willing to do whatever it takes to keep her partner happy and avoid boredom, but eventually, she reaches her breaking point and decides to leave.
