Lyrics

NOTE: THESE LYRICS ARE TRANSCRIBED BY EAR AND MAY BE INCORRECT

    Waves have grown
    Should've known
    On our own
    We wait
 
    Single file
    An empty smile
    And all the while
    We wait
   
    I hear the world is on the wing
    I don't believe in anything

    Cast aside
    This great divide
    With foolish pride
    We wait

    Off the trail
    We eat our tail
    I can't fail
    And wait
    And wait
    And wait

    I hear the world is on the wing
    I don't believe in anything
    I hear the voices rise and sing
    But I don't believe in anything

    Used to
    Believe in you
    Yet all we do
    Is wait
