Go Back

I'm Not Waiting

Home is nothing but a place for us to
Lay our heads down safely
But there's no door here and there's no roof
You've over-stayed your welcome and it's time to move

Into the bedroom, open the window
You've been here all day, so it seems
Red roses mark the life she's left
Yet she's gone no where a victim of theft

I'm not waiting
Just for anything
I'm just trying
To get you out of bed, so try

I'm not crying
Not for anything
I've decided
That my eyes are dry

I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting

It smells of stale coffee staining the floor
And 3 day old pasta from the night before
Do you feel at peace with the same old routine?
Scars that indicate another scene

A blanket of stars shifting awkwardly
May look like flecks to you, but I know what they mean
Another headache, another willow tree
Another moon you once again fail to see

I'm not waiting
Just for something
I'm just trying
To get you out of bed, so try

I'm not crying
Not for anything
I've decided
That my eyes are dry

I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting

I'm not waiting
Just for anything
I'm just trying
To get you out of bed, so try

I'm not crying
Not for anything
I've decided
That my eyes are dry

I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
I'm not waiting
