Wasting Away Lyrics by Chief State

Waiting For Your Colours

2022

[Verse 1]
It’s been seven weeks
It’s beginning to get to me
Wish you would stop distancing
For once, just be near
Walk these city streets
To rupture these boundaries
It’s more than just therapy to me, it heals

[Pre-Chorus]
Wish you would say
'Cause I don’t know why you feel this way

[Chorus]
Why the fuck are we running in circles to find an escape
Locked in these boundaries just wasting away
When the fuck will we learn to live again?

[Verse 2]
Let my guard fall down
Got lost in a different town
Stuck in between the lines
It never gеts better, it nevеr subsides

[Pre-Chorus]
Wish you would say
'Cause I don’t know why you feel this way

[Chorus]
Why the fuck are we running in circles to find an escape
Locked in these boundaries just wasting away
When the fuck will we learn to live again?

[Bridge]
Can you hear me?
Silence is growing but nobody’s noticed a thing
Rupture these boundaries
It’s more than just therapy to me, to me

[Chorus]
Why the fuck are we running in circles to find an escape
Locked in these boundaries just wasting away
When the fuck will we learn to live again?
