"Waiting"

Every night I cry

Oh I cry

In hopes that someone

Anyone will hear me

And want to help

Every night I cry

Oh boy do I cry

From sunrise to sunset

I've grown accustom to the tears

Too many years

wasted

Waiting

Waiting for something

Waiting for someone

Waiting

Waiting and searching for anything but me

Anything, anyone that didn't remind me of home

Yet seemed so familiar

Waiting for what I felt was entitled to me

As reparations so to speak

For all the lies

the sorrow

the carelessness

the empty I love you's

and pointless fornication

There I stood

Waiting
