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
