The Avett Brothers - Another is Waiting lyrics

It's a fake, it's a hoax
It's a nowhere road where no one goes
Anywhere, anyhow
Well you're followin' your heart rate down

She's a rose, she's a queen
But she's starin' at a magazine
In the dark, on the path
Where they doctor every photograph

Another is waiting she isn't saying anything

If you care, if you like
Well, I'm standing in the lantern light
With our weapons and our love
And I use them both to cover up

But, I love you and I care
So you got to get off that conveyor belt
If I could
I would come right in and take you off myself

It's a fake, it's a con
The nature of the road you're on
Let's me see your skeleton
Well before your life is done
