Songtext von Wait It Out

Where do we go from here? How do we carry on? I can't get beyond the questions Clambering for the scraps In the shatter of us collapsed That cuts me with every could-have-been Pain on pain on play repeating With the backup, makeshift life in waiting Everybody says Time heals everything But what of the wretched hollow? The endless in-between? Are we just going to wait it out? There's nothing to see here now Turning the sign around We're closed to the Earth till further notice A stumbling clichéd case Crumpled and puffy-faced Dead in the stare of a thousand miles All I want, only one, street-level miracle I'll be an out and out, born-again from none more cynical Everybody says That time heals everything all in the end What of the wretched hollow? The endless in-between? Are we just going to wait it out? And sit here cold? We will be long gone by then In lackluster, in dust we layer on old magazines Fluorescent lighting sets the scene For all we could and should be being In the one life that we've got In the one life that we've got Everybody says That time heals everything And what of the wretched hollow? The endless in-between? Are we just going to wait it out? And sit here Just going to wait it out And sit here cold Just going to sweat it out Wait it out
