Waiting Game

Temptation 
Self destruction 
I’ve been waiting sometime 
For you 

Hours 
Days away 
Minutes slowly fade 
Give it up again I’ll show 
I’ll wait a while 
Because I know 

Chorus:
Maybe I won’t give up now
Maybe it’s not too late 
To find all that I’m after 
This waiting game 

I search there far and wide 
To find the things that 
I couldn’t find 
All the hours and the unrest 
Days so worthless 
I won’t contest

Chorus:
Maybe I won’t give up now
Maybe it’s not too late 
To find all that I’m after 
This waiting game 

Bridge:
I once fell so hard 
Long ago 
Waiting on you to come 
But you didn’t show
So now I’ll search out here 
Far and wide to see all the places 
That you couldn’t find 

Chorus:
Maybe I won’t give up now
Maybe it’s not too late 
To find all that I’m after 
This waiting game

    down the street

    i walked down the street
    the streets i once used to know 
    filled with regrets and heavy with burdens 
    of what once happened here

    i walked down the street 
    a block or so down

    Dear god, am I real?

    I believe in god even though I may know he doesn’t exist

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
