Waiting Game

(album: Better Off - 2018)

I wouldn't talk about the life you know
Having grown into that chair with nothing to live for
But so it goes
I should get over any loss of respect
But I can't help it, no

I wouldn't talk about the time you spent
Reminding yourself it'll all be so worth it in the end
For now just sit back, relax
(Sit back, relax)
And let your intuition do the rest

I've been growing distant
You've been holding yourself back

I won't erase this even if it
Feels like I'm not coming back to every scene
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)
Every part of me
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)

I won't erase this even if it
Feels like I'm not coming back to every scene
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)
Every part of what's been new me
(I won't erase this one)

Well maybe life is just a waiting game
Of betting money on the next breakthrough
But you're the fucking expert, aren't you?

Well if your mind's so made up
Then maybe you should show me what you're made of
And put that critical arrest into action
To tear apart these preconceived notions
Thinking in motion
I've been growing distant
You've still holding yourself back

I won't erase this even if it
Feels like I'm not coming back to every scene
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)
Every part of me
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)

I won't erase this even if it
Feels like I'm not coming back to every scene
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)
Every part of what's been new me
(I won't erase this one)

But maybe it's a difference of reality
That really makes this more than just conviction
I will watch this world destroy what you believe

I won't erase this even if it
Feels like I'm not coming back to every scene
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)
Every part of me
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)

I won't erase this even if it
Feels like I'm not coming back to every scene
(I won't erase this, won't erase this one)
Every part of what's been new me
