Lyrics
You're Only Waiting
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You said what you wanted was something perfect
More than you could understand
She might be around for hours
Over, under, through and back again
Waiting the wall
And the holes you punch
I try to understand
You're only waiting
She said one is perfect everybody fights to feel again
She'd like to believe in something, feeling like you never had again
And you don't like to be what they said you were
You'd only just pretend
You're only waiting
To build yourself another limit out of touch but still within it
You're only waiting
Coming in to other holes you've seen enough to know it all
You're only waiting
Getting back at somebody who knows your name and you know better but
You would like to think you made a mark on someone live and sober but
You're only waiting
