Andrea Bignasca The Waiting song lyrics

I'm not getting any younger

this place is getting smaller boy

seems like there ain't nobody to turn to

oh if only I could get myself

a little meeting with the stars one night

that'd keep me from hurting, if I knew

if it was worth waiting

I've seen my body, tall and strong, being shackled to my broken brain

and my heart being shown a parade of dreams

that are never coming true

tired of waiting

been getting ready for a long, long time

chafing just from standing there trying, a thought:

"that hunger that breaks you,

might also just redeem you"

not unlike the drunken in the night

who tells the barman "keep ‘em coming, alright?"

I'm out there fighting demons

which gives purpose to my breathing

I see my horse, tired and trembling

being tied by someone else's reins

and my heart being shown a parade of dreams

that are never coming true
