Alkaline Trio - While You're Waiting lyrics
[Alkaline Trio - While You're Waiting lyrics]
There's a hope in my head
That's been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there's smoke in the air
And it's soon to clear revealing our demise
There are some who say that it's A-OK
If it makes you feel alright
It's just way too bad
Now you're worse than sad
All locked up there inside
And I don't know how you feel
But, I'll make you a deal
If you make it out alive
My shoulders and ears are all yours my dear
I hope it comes as no surprise
You've been know to say that you're A-OK
When you're feeling sick inside
I just want you to know
I've got no place to go
Until the day you die
While you're waiting
Be thankful for your fingers i'll be fading
With the colors of your pictures
I'm not crying wolf, you whispered
I'm really dead this time
I'm really dead this time
There's a hope in my head
That's been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there's smoke in the air
And it's soon to clear revealing our demise
You've been know to say that you're A-OK
When you're feeling dead inside
I just want you to know
I've got no place to go
Until the day you die
While you're waiting
Be thankful for your fingers i'll be fading
With the colors of your pictures
I'm not crying wolf you whispered
I'm really dead this time
I'm really dead this time
They locked you up they threw away the key
Sutured your mouth shut murdered your family
Right before your eyes what could you do?
Right before your eyes
They took it all from you
Contemplating you hanging from your ceiling
Can't help hating
You for having that feeling
I'm not joking when I tell you
I miss you all the time
I already miss you all the time
That's been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there's smoke in the air
And it's soon to clear revealing our demise
There are some who say that it's A-OK
If it makes you feel alright
It's just way too bad
Now you're worse than sad
All locked up there inside
And I don't know how you feel
But, I'll make you a deal
If you make it out alive
My shoulders and ears are all yours my dear
I hope it comes as no surprise
You've been know to say that you're A-OK
When you're feeling sick inside
I just want you to know
I've got no place to go
Until the day you die
While you're waiting
Be thankful for your fingers i'll be fading
With the colors of your pictures
I'm not crying wolf, you whispered
I'm really dead this time
I'm really dead this time
There's a hope in my head
That's been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there's smoke in the air
And it's soon to clear revealing our demise
You've been know to say that you're A-OK
When you're feeling dead inside
I just want you to know
I've got no place to go
Until the day you die
While you're waiting
Be thankful for your fingers i'll be fading
With the colors of your pictures
I'm not crying wolf you whispered
I'm really dead this time
I'm really dead this time
They locked you up they threw away the key
Sutured your mouth shut murdered your family
Right before your eyes what could you do?
Right before your eyes
They took it all from you
Contemplating you hanging from your ceiling
Can't help hating
You for having that feeling
I'm not joking when I tell you
I miss you all the time
I already miss you all the time
