I've Been Waitin' For Tomorrow (all My Life) Lyrics - Singles - The The

I'm hiding in the corner of an overgrown garden 

Covering my body in leaves and trying not to breathe 

All my childhood dreams are bursting at the seams 

And dangling around my knees 

I've been deformed by emotional scars 

And the cancer of love has eaten out my heart 

I've been stripped bare and nobody cares 

And all the people I looked up to are no longer there 

All desires have been denied 

To put me in this state of mind 

Another year over and what have I done? 

All my aspirations have shriveled in the sun 

I'm crippled by guilt, blinded by science 

I've been waiting for tomorrow all of my life 

I've been filled with useless information 

Spewed out by papers and radio stations 

I've been hounded by fair-weather friends 

Sowing the seeds for my discontent 

Life is like a sewer 

And I'm trying to wade through her 

I threw in my money and made my wish 

But sleeping boys catch no fish 

All desires have been denied 

To put me in this state of mind 

Another year over and what have I done? 

All my aspirations have shriveled in the sun 

I'm crippled by guilt, blinded by science 

I've been waiting for tomorrow all of my life 

All my childhood dreams are dangling around my knees 

My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted 

My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted 

My mind has been polluted and my energy diluted
