While You're Waiting Lyrics - Alkaline Trio

There's a hope in my head 

That's been cut and bled 

Dry as your bloodshot eyes 

And there's smoke in the air 

And it's soon to clear 

Revealing our demise 

There are some who say 

That it's a-ok 

If it makes you feel alright 

This is way too bad 

Now you're worse than sad 

All locked up there inside

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

And I don't know how you feel 

But I'll make you a deal 

If u make it out alive 

My shoulders and ears 

Are all yours my dear 

I hope it comes as no surprise 

You've been know to say that you're a-ok 

When you're feeling sick inside 

I just want you to know 

I've got no place to go 

Until the day you die 

While you're waiting 

Be thankful for your fingers 

I'll be fading 

With the colors of your pictures 

I'm not crying wolf, you whispered 

I'm really dead this time 

Photos 

I'm really dead this time 

There's a hope in my head 

That's been cut and bled 

Dry as your bloodshot eyes 

And there's smoke in the air 

And it's soon to clear 

Revealing our demise 

You've been know to say that you're a-ok 

When you're feeling dead inside 

I just want you to know 

I've got no place to go 

Until the day you die 

While you're waiting 

Be thankful for your fingers 

I'll be fading 

With the colors of your pictures 

I'm not crying wolf you whispered 

I'm really dead this time 

I'm really dead this time 

They locked you up 

They threw away the key 

Sutured your mouth shut 

Murdered your family 

Right before your eyes 

What could you do? 

Right before your eyes 

They took it all from you 

Contemplating 

You hanging from your ceiling 

Can't help hating 

You for having that feeling 

I'm not joking when I tell you 

I miss you all the time 

I already miss you all the time
