I know I can't have it
Twisted tongue leaves my talk tangled
Can't come out
I'll say it.
Say it to your face
Wishful waiting
Hope is my date
Wait is it good is it gold
All these desires
Build to the fire
Left untold
Keep me waiting
Wishful waiting
Wait
Clearly I'm a walking corpse
This course is ending, unwinding
Knots inside my brain
Keep me from thinking straight
Not worthy of my dreams
Clouding my memories
I know I don't need it
I'll kill the butterflies that
once ate my insides
Accepting reality has
freed my waiting.
