The Waiting Room
|
|
Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby
|
Beat the fate-walls enclosing you, maybe
|
God will unlock the cage of learning for you
|
Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby
|
Kick and scream at the wicked things, maybe
|
God will unlock the door you need to walk through
|
When will it happen, baby?
|
It could be near, but then maybe it could be far
|
|
Here we are in the waiting room of the world
|
We will wait until you call our name out loud
|
In the waiting room of the world
|
We will wait until you call our name out loud
|
|
And the battle will never end well
|
You can't marry our heaven to your hell
|
We, Prolific, and you, the Devourer, need to see
|
Some things are sacred, baby
|
Why have you gone and trampled them lately
|
I guess it's just all a part of your way
|
|
You should be ashamed
|
I'm getting tired of fighting
|
I guess I should ask, "Do I go quietly down?
|
Do I kick, do I scream when I'm bound?
|
Are you coming to open the door?
|
Are you near?
|
Are you near?
|
Is it far?"
|
|
Here we are in the waiting room of the world
|
We will wait until you call our name out loud
|
In the waiting room of the world
|
We will wait until you call our name out loud
|
