Lyrics

Living In Limbo

Living in limbo, load up the wagon

Next stop is somewhere where something will happen

Oh packing, unpacking, sleep in a bubble

If things are changing the difference is subtle

Packing, unpacking all types of weather

Start on the path to the end of the tether

Oh packing, unpacking, memories linger

Retracing your steps, it's all so familiar

Living in limbo

Living in limbo

La la la la

Watching through the window

Packing, unpacking what's in your suitcase

Go ahead and reach in and pull out a new face

Oh packing, unpacking talking on skyphones

Meaningful contact is strained over time zones

Living in limbo

Living in limbo

La la la la

Watching through the window

Oh packing, unpacking on slow elevators

Asking for taxis and waiting for waiters

Living in limbo

Living in limbo

La la la la

Watching through the window
