Wait It Out

[Verse 1]

Where do we go from here?

How do we carry on?

I can't get beyond the questions

I'm clambering for the scraps

In the shatter of us, collapsed

It cuts me with every could have been

[Pre-Chorus]

Pain on pain on play repeating

With a backup makeshift life in waiting

[Chorus]

Everybody says that time heals everything

But what of the wretched hallow

The endless in-between

Are we just going to wait it out?

[Verse 2]

There's nothing to see here now

Turning the sign around

We're closed to the Earth 'til further notice

Stumbling cliché case

Crumpled and puffy-faced

Dead in the stare of a thousand miles

[Pre-Chorus]

All I want is only one street-level miracle

I'll be an out-and-out, born again from none more cynical

[Chorus]

Everybody says that time heals everything

But what of the wretched hallow

The endless in-between

Are we just going to wait it out?

[Bridge]

And sit here cold

We will be long gone by then and lackluster

In dust, we lay around old magazines

Fluorescent lighting sets the scene

For all we could and should be being

In the one life that we've got

In the one life, in the one life that we got

In the one life, in the one life that we got

In the one life, in the one life that we've got

[Chorus]

Everybody says that time heals everything

But what of the wretched hallow

The endless in-between

Are we just going to wait it out?

And sit here, just going to wait it out

And sit here cold, just going to sweat it out

Wait it out
