one thought has me turning back
a dozen point the other way
We act upon desire
to each a hand for hire
patience isn't worth the wait
you've got knives in your eyes
you would be happy not to change your mind
I can't defend you truly
when I worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire
and if we work it out
chances are bound
we'd be standing our ground
for no one's better sake
goodbye
what are we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
what are we waiting for?
how faint might that light become
when focused at from miles away?
although my position
just gives you ammunition
be certain that I know my praise
so is this how it ends?
oh with a whimper in the place of a bang
I can't defend you truly
when I worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire
and if we work it out
chances are bound
we'd be standing around
for no one's better sake
goodbye
we would be friends
if we tried again
I'd take second place
just to end the race
for no one's better sake
goodbye.
