Wait for Life Lyrics by Emile Haynie

We Fall

2015

[Verse 1]
Why you make me work so hard
To put on that evening show
When you know that all I want
Is to make your money grow?
You're like a baby who don't got nowhere to go
I feel you eyeing me, you keep it on the low
(On the low, on the low)
[Chorus]
But I can't let you in
And I can't keep you out
I wait for life to end
But it never comes around
And I can't hear you call
And I can't hear me shout
I wait for it to break
But it never comes around
And I'm lonely
I'm lonely
I'm lonely
[Verse 2]
Why you make me take that shit
To put on that evening show
When you know I don't need it
Better than your booze and blow?
You're like a baby, don't know better, you don't know
You drag me down, you try to keep it on the low
[Chorus]
But I can't let you in
And I can't keep you out
I wait for life to end
But it never comes around
And I can't hear you call
And I can't hear me shout
I wait for it to break
But it never comes around
[Bridge]
Feel like, feel like I'm falling apart
Feel like, feel like I'm falling apart
Feel like, feel like I'm falling apart
Would you tell me?
Would you tell me?
Would you tell me?
[Chorus]
But I can't let you in
And I can't keep you out
I wait for life to end
But it never comes around
And I can't hear you call
And I can't hear me shout
I wait for it to break
But it never comes around
And I'm lonely
I'm lonely
I'm lonely
