I sit and I wait
Like a loyal dog, I'd be here anyway
My words excavate
Age-old feelings, boring, fleeting, all the same
Shadowed whispers shake the ground beneath
And fall on ears who've grown numb to everything
(Like me!)
Don't always wanna be
Drawing lines in the street
It's getting embarrassing
Being the one to piss and moan
Over your dial tone
Like a loyal dog, I sit
Sit and wait for this
To break, to break, to break, to break
I admit, I'm full of shit
'Cause I can't wait for this
To fall so I can sing out its mistakes
So inadequate
That our story stopped and stalled; start it again
I'll extend my hand
Once these tears have shed
And when I fully understand
The value of an ear that is open
Drowning my inhibitions
In a broken bottle rather than my friends
Like a loyal dog, I sit
Sit and wait for this
To break, to break, to break, to break
I admit, I'm full of shit
'Cause I can't wait for this
To fall so I can sing out its mistakes
I just can't escape
All these weathered words; they tend to complicate
Violent winds shape my vocabulary to celebrate a bastard's embrace
Like a loyal dog, I sit
Sit and wait for this
To break, to break, to break, to break
I admit, I'm full of shit
'Cause I can't wait for this
To fall so I can sing out its mistakes
