Weeds grown Should have known On our own
We wait
Single file
An empty smile And all the while We wait I hear the word 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 tails Bound to fail
And wait I hear the word is on the wing I don't believe in anything A chorus of voices rise to sing I don'''incoming'''''t believe in anything Used to Believe in you Yet all we do Is wait {{succession box | title=[[Welcome Oblivion (album)|Welcome Oblivion]] | before= [[Ice Age]]| after= [[Too Late, All Gone]]| track= 6}}{{succession box | title=[[An Omen EP#Track listing|An Omen EP]] | before=[[Ice Age]]| after= [[The Sleep Of Reason Produces Monsters]]| track= 3}}[[Category:Covers]]
