What We Wait for - Conditions

The world’s supposed to spin one way

And all of us move along

Then why does it feel like this

Like everything about it’s wrong

The human race is on the run

At risk of being thrown away

The species left without a cause

Each person less unique each day

What is it that we wait for

What is it that awakens inside us to be more

I believe that we’re sleeping

And wasting all of our time

What is it that we wait for

Consuming personalities

Shopping for skin to wear

We’d rather be somebody else

Than build upon what’s already there

We all begin to fade away

Swallowed by the softening times

The consequences sing us to sleep

Arrested by a lullaby

What is it that we wait for

What is it that awakens inside us to be more

I believe that we’re sleeping

And wasting all of our time

What is it that we wait for

We’ve been sleeping for years

Walking on lines

Dying to live with the softening times

Why do we go and bury our lives

Secretly knowing why

What is it that we wait for

What is it that awakens inside us to be more

I believe that we’re sleeping

And wasting all of our time

What is it that we wait for

Woah
