While the World is Waiting Lyrics by Backwards Dancer

Backwards Dancer

2017

So long for now
Can you feel my heart beat?
I've been asleep but now I'm waking
So long, so long
Can you feel me shaking?
See past your pride and take this
Hold out your hands
Receive this patient
Tripped in a well that's slowly fading
So long, so long
Can you see me shaking?
I saw it inside
Give me all that I need and see
It won't change a thing but now I believe
That we're still here
Can you see inside me
Can you even try
So sick inside, don't even want to hide
Won't try to run no more
And now I can't ignore it
I'm stuck inside this overture
That never seemed to cure
So much impurity
It's stuck inside of me
I'll beg to let it go
It's so hard to fall
My stomachs aching
And now I'm here while the world is waiting
For all the debts I never paid them
It's time and time is wasted
So long sweet dream
Where are you going?
I've seen your eyes and now I'm breathing
Hold onto a dream or an even belief
I adore you more and why can't you see?
Don't go away, don't fault yourself
We're lost like silhouettes at sunset
So sick inside, don't even want to hide
Won't try to run no more
And now I can't ignore it
I'm stuck inside this overture
That never seemed to cure
So much impurity
It's stuck inside of me
I'll beg to let it go
How did things turn out this way
My stomach's caving in
Just need a remedy to let me go
Keep moving along as long as you go
Lock the door behind you, go away
I'm spread so thin, this ball and chain; monologue fades go away go away go away
