Wait Baby Wait

WAIT BABY WAIT

I'VE BEEN FEELIN' LIKE SUCH A PRETENDER
I'VE BEEN FEELIN' SO OUT OF CONTROL
WE WEREN'T BORN IN THIS LIFE TO SURRENDER
YOU WEREN'T BORN HERE TO SELL YOUR SOUL
NOW THE BATTLES AND WARS WE'VE BEEN FIGHTING
ARE NOT THE BATTLES IN SEARCH OF THE TRUTH
AND I'VE BEEN FIGHTIN' MYSELF FOR PRETENDING
WASTING THE BEST YEARS OF MY YOUTH

SHE SAID WAIT, BABY WAIT, BABY
OH TONIGHT IT'S NOT RIGHT
OH TONIGHT IT'S NOT RIGHT
WAIT BABY, WAIT BABY
OH TOMORROW WE CAN, YES TOMORROW WE CAN

I'VE BEEN LIVIN' ON THE EDGES OF DARKNESS
I'VE SEEN THE PEOPLE BABY, LIVIN' IN FEAR
IT'S A PLACE WHERE YOU GO TO SURRENDER
IT'S A PLACE NOT FAR FROM HERE
I'VE HAD ENOUGH TONIGHT I'M HEADED FOR SOMEWHERE
ANY DIRECTION, GET ME OUT OF HERE
I'M GETTIN' OUT I AIN'T NEVER COMIN' BACK
I'D RATHER DIE LOST THAN LIVE IN FEAR

SHE SAID WAIT, BABY WAIT, BABY
OH TONIGHT IT'S NOT RIGHT
OH TONIGHT IT'S NOT RIGHT
WAIT BABY, WAIT BABY
OH TOMORROW WE CAN, YES TOMORROW WE CAN

NO, TELL ME BABY WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR
TELL ME BABY 'TILL WE'RE TOO WEAK TO FIGHT AND WALK OUT THE DOOR
TELL ME BABY WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR
TELL ME BABY 'TILL OUR BLOOD IS DRIED UP AND WE'RE DUST AND WE'RE BONES

I FEEL LIKE SOMETHING INSIDE ME IS DYING
OR MAYBE IT ALREADY DIED
I MIGHT BE CRAZY, CRAZY FOR TRYING
TONIGHT I'M FIGHTIN', OH TO KEEP IT ALIVE
THIS SICK OLD WORLD AIN'T EVER GONNA CHANGE
I'M TIRED OF WAITING FOR MY LIFE TO BEGIN
WE'VE BEEN LOSING AT SOMEONE ELSE'S GAME
TONIGHT I'M GONNA LEARN HOW TO WIN

NO, TELL ME BABY WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR
TELL ME BABY 'TILL WE'RE TOO WEAK TO FIGHT AND WALK OUT THE DOOR
TELL ME BABY WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR
TELL ME BABY 'TILL OUR BLOOD IS DRIED UP AND WE'RE DUST AND WE'RE BONES
