mustn't wait for this too long   we're waiting, we're fading, we're still all alone   and if it hurts, well that's the road   it's driving, it's smiling, it's keeping it close   we can't stay around too long   we're moving, we're stealing, we're going along   and if it hurts, well that's our own   we're waiting, we're fading, we're hanging on      the roadside's lined with bones and skin   we're waiting, we're fading, we're keeping it in   the lines divide and pass again   we're feeling we're real and it's not what we meant   the streetlights fade away and dim   it's nothing, it's nothing, it's not any thing   and if it hurts, well that's the plan   we're waiting, we're fading, we're gone      fall   back to where it seems   we need, we wait,   we see      so when they ask us how we are   "it's better, it's better than this,   we never let things get that far."   it's better, it's better than this.
