lyrics

Gotta cut away
This feeling of waiting
Everyone is just waiting
For things to get better
For things to get worse
For Jesus to come save them
For someone to lift the curse
What are you waiting for?

We are just waiting
For love gone wrong to return
With the anxiety of the chase
That reminds us
Of things that can’t be undone
This can’t be undone

Will it get better
Or just enough to get me through
Waiting to be saved
Waiting for you

When that world ends
It’ll come down to just me and you
And I’ll have waited out eternity
Just to be undone by you

Go live in delusion
Like a girl playing wedding
Trying on the dress for size

Help yourself to the delusion
That I’m gonna turn blue
Won’t even breathe
Will I sit and wait for you

Did you really think
I’d give up eternity
Just for you?
I’d do it just for you

I hope that she’s nice to you
In a way I never was
And I hope she’d give up
Eternity & everything
Just to wait for you.
Does she wait for you
Like I do?
Does she do it better
Than I do?
Would she wait it out
Just to be undone by you?
What are you waiting for?
Cuz there will come a day
Where I won’t do this anymore
No I won’t feel it anymore
So tell me what you’re waiting for.
