Waiting
(Lyrics)
Verse 1
Waiting, for what you ask
Something better, a brighter task
Something new, something good
Just for you, I always would
The time does pass, while the ticking goes on
It’s truly a tricky one, honing this song
Chorus
The end is coming, the wait is short
I see the signal, the same as before
But nothing is coming, nothing is new
Time, I think, I’ll make a brew
Verse 2
Questions linger, shadows stay
Hopes for answers fade away
A restless heart, a clock’s slow chime
A battle fought with passing time
The end is coming, the wait is short
I see the signal, the same as before
Chorus
The end is coming, the wait is short
I see the signal, the same as before
But nothing is coming, nothing is new
Time, I think, I’ll make a brew
Bridge
Steam rising, a quiet escape
A mug in hand, it reshapes
The thoughts, the dreams, the fleeting haze
And still, the clock ticks through the maze
Outro
Waiting, for what you ask
Something better, a lighter mask
But if nothing comes, and nothing’s new
I’ll sit right here and sip my brew.
