Your help is on the way
just sing yourself a song and wait
nothing was promised in the first place
but we?ll suffer for as long as we can take
then the suffering, one way or the other
it will go away
it's quiet and you wake
you make the bed for two you always make
though half empty from some days before he lay down on the kitchen floor
you struggled but you could not afford the weight
and in a senseless moment everything you're working toward
was taken away
so you sold everything you didn't want
you sold everything you didn't want
oh you sold everything you didn't want saved
and you sold everything you didn't want
And you sold everything you didn't want
and what you couldn't sell you gave away
now you've a few years left give or take
and I think I should say
as long as you're waiting
as long as you're waiting
since you have nothing to do with your hands
you might as well pray
I am no god-fearing man but I am afraid
of something that I cannot quite explain
Oh hi-ho hi-ho hi-ho hi-ho (etc.)
so you sold everything you didn't want
you sold everything you didn't want
oh you sold everything you didn't want saved
this marks a vulnerable part of me
I guess it runs in my family
I guess it runs in my family
passing the fire down to me
I only fear for my family
I've got it in me
I wanna live but I don't wanna live (x3)
this thing is out there I don't know where it is
I wanna live but I don't wanna live (x3)
this thing is out there I don't know where it is
I'm waving the white flag, the fire's ceased
I don't want any enemies
so why they still digging their claws in me
