lyrics

I wait for the time
The end of the night
Chase after the prize
At the end of the line

And I wait for the time
When love is truly mine
Chase after the fame
The credit and the gain
And with each passing day
I’m closer to the grave
And those moments I crave
Are still so far away

And I wait for the day
As my life crumbles away
And again again I pray
To be freed from this stage
This play of human nonsense
This apes’ petty little world
To release me, let me go
And return to the void

And I wait for the day
The clock tickin’ away
And I wish for the end
For the scythe to descend

But now and then I recall
The cause behind it all

Because I wait for the day
But I know that’s not the way
Desires come true
Then we’re just onto something new
But between those moments
When we chase after the bait
We can see beyond it all
To the light that never fades

You know there’s beauty all around you
You don’t need the world of fame
You know there’s love all around you
You don’t need a golden ring
You know there’s power inside of you
You don’t need the world to tell you so
You’re waiting for approval
But that train’ll never show
