| Your help is on the way
|
| Just sing yourself a song and wait
|
| Nothing was promised in the first place
|
| But we suffer for as long as we can take
|
| Then the suffering, one way or the other
|
| It will go away
|
| It’s quiet and you wake
|
| You make the bed for two you always make
|
| Though half-empty from some days before
|
| He lay down on the kitchen floor
|
| You struggled but you could not afford
|
| The weight
|
| And in a senseless moment
|
| Everything you’re working toward
|
| Was taken away
|
| So you sold everything that you didn’t want
|
| You sold everything that you didn’t want
|
| You sold everything that you didn’t want to save
|
| Yeah you sold everything that you didn’t want
|
| You sold everything you didn’t want
|
| And what you couldn’t sell you gave away
|
| Now you’ve a few years left give or take
|
| And I think I should say
|
| As long as you’re waiting
|
| As long as you’re waiting
|
| Since you have nothing to do with your hands
|
| You might as well pray
|
| I am no god-fearing man, but I am afraid
|
| Of something that I cannot quite explain
|
| So you sold everything that you didn’t want
|
| You sold everything that you didn’t want
|
| You sold everything you didn’t want to save
|
| This marks a vulnerable part of me
|
| I guess it runs in my family
|
| I guess it runs in my family
|
| Passing the fire down to me
|
| I only fear for my family
|
| I’ve got it in me
|
| Got it in my genes
|
| Misery loves company
|
| So careful of the friends you keep
|
| I wanna live but I don’t wanna live
|
| I wanna live but I don’t wanna live
|
| I wanna live but I don’t wanna live
|
| This thing is out there I don’t know where it is
|
| I’m waving the white flag, the fire’s ceased
|
| I don’t want any enemies
|
| I’m waving the white flag, the fire’s ceased
|
| I don’t want any enemies
|
| So why they still digging their claws in me? |
