What was I waiting for    Waiting for the bubble to burst    Over your stagnant pauses       Can’t cure what your devil don’t see    Or light a fire below the death of me    We’ve shot through all over our causes       Days spin through my heart    That sever the love    Kill all the pain with shame       I won’t be lost without you    I’ve found a way to get through    Now I’m up and running    Strong enough to walk away    And leave you all alone    I won’t be lost       What were you waiting for    Waiting for the straw to break    Over the back of desperate ways       You were a dream to me    Now you’re nothing but a heart    that bleeds    I’ll wash you off and carry on       (Repeat bridge and chorus)       And when I see you    I find another reason    To keep myself from getting lost in you
