The Wait Lyrics
I haven’t the time and I
Can’t contain myself
The lack of concern
That’s on my mind is a privilege
Off in a fit of rage, either way
Your day is yours not mine
Co-misery is common place
Doing so as you always do, oh
This could all be gone in a moment
Or will persisting break the fall?
In the back of your head, do the sirens keep getting louder?
Does the love feel unrest, fill the void that was left by a lover?
Darling, is it the time or the place? Is forever worth the wait?
What pleasure will you find
If you entertain yourself?
Seen punching the air
Watch the freedom causing you to lose your sight
This could all be yours in a moment
Only if it’s really what you like
In the back of your head, do the sirens keep getting louder?
Does the love feel unrest, fill the void that was left by your lover?
Darling, is it the time or the place? Is forever worth the wait?
Feel the break in the power lines
Staying in, not going outside
Spin the clock just to waste my time
I’m the who I’ve been my entire life
This could all be gone in a moment
This could all be gone in a moment
In the back of your head, do the sirens keep getting louder?
Does the love feel unrest, fill the void that was left by your lover?
Darling, is it the time or the place? From the risk that we take
Is it the time?
Burn the walls they made, do it all in your name
Found we’re one in the same, is forever worth the wait?
