The Waiting

The Waiting - Arrows to Athens

You do your best

Not to notice

The crumbling ground

Beneath your feet

The rest of life

Is waiting for us

But what we've done

Will never leave

Fate still holds us

We work our life to

Ease a conscience

And fill the Earth

To set it free

'Cause truth will rise

Up to the surface

And present words won't

Change a thing

But we can't shake

The screams in the night

And our hearts race

'Cause the dreams never die

But we try to drown these memories

Over over

Waiting never sleep

There's absolution

For what's stolen

At least we believed

It all along

To end the doubt

To cut us open

We must learn to live

Without what's gone

In the wake of the moment

'Cause we can't shake

The screams in the night

And our hearts race

'Cause the dreams never die

But we try to drown these memories

Over over

Waiting never sleep

And the waiting

Watching us

There's absolution

For what's stolen

At least we believed it all along

But we can't shake

The screams in the night

And our hearts race

'Cause the dreams never die

But we try to drown these memories

Over over

Waiting never sleep

Waiting never sleep

Never sleep

Though we try to

Drown these memories

Over over

Waiting never sleep

Waiting watching now

Waiting watching now
