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
