It never threw me like this
ignored
A head buried in the sand
to retort.

If it ever came down
To be a man
Or break my fall

Peel back the skin again
So I know.

And I wait, and I wait, to live this damn thing out
And I wait, and I wait, to be the thing I never was before.

A head case
I can't refrain
All of my flaws

Rebound
Or rationalize
Just to stall

Well, I'm well aware
And I think you care
From your easy chair

Remission is all
that I can't afford.

And I wait, and I wait, to live this damn thing out
And I wait, and I wait, to be the thing I never was
And I wait, and I wait, to live this damn thing out
And I wait, and I wait, to be the thing I never was before.

And I wait, and I wait, to live this damn thing out
And I wait, and I wait, to be the thing I never was
And I wait, and I wait, to live this damn thing out
And I wait, and I wait, to be the thing I never was before.
