Waiting Alone (Haley's Song)


Are you asleep?
Or trying to find the words to explain
A practice to keep
Keep me from slowly going insane

In trying to find this, I won't falter behind it again
When coming to grips with the noose as it slips
I can see that it's not sinking in

Make your way if I can't reach you
But don't pause to stay when we're beneath you
Wait to play, you're always running for home

Can you respond?
With numbers to blink for yes or no
I'll Move right along
Looking for signs of life as I go

While stopping to seize it, I could never believe how it ends
In coming to terms with each lesson we've learned
I'll return when I've slowed my descent

Make your way if I can't reach you
But don't pause to stay when we're beneath you
Wait to play, you're always running for home

Crash and burn, if you don't want to
But you'll soon discern the ghosts that haunt you
As these seasons turn, I'm always waiting alone

Waking up and taking off, baby
Watching every inhibition slowly coming down
I'm pretty sure that everyone's gone crazy
Trying to make it through Until we find some solid ground

Now there's nobody left around
No there's nobody left around

Make your way if I can't reach you
But don't pause to stay when we're beneath you
Wait to play, you're always running for home

Crash and burn, if you don't want to
But you'll soon discern the ghosts that haunt you
As these seasons turn, I'm always waiting alone

Crash and burn, crash and burn
Crash and burn, I'm always waiting alone
I'm always waiting alone
