Waiting for the Bombs Lyrics by Tom Rhodes

A World of Broken Mirrors EP

2020

[Verse 1]
Do you think about the future?
Did you dream when you were wrong?
Did you know where this was going?

[Verse 2]
You promised us a storybook ending
Promised you were in control
Now the writing's on the wall

[Chorus]
So while we're waiting for the bombs to fall
I'll be keeping my head above the clouds
Hoping for a new beginning
Where once upon a time
Is on the horizon, and happily ever after all
Is coming after all

[Verse 3]
Does it break your heart
To know that we're breaking down the walls
Between us?
Where do you start
When the end is always near
And you're totally surrounded?

[Chorus]
So while we're waiting for the bombs to fall
I'll be keeping my head above the clouds
Hoping for a new beginning
Where once upon a time
Is on the horizon, and happily ever after all
Is coming after all
It's coming after all
It's coming after all

[Bridge]
It's always dark before the dawn
So let me dream a little longer
Help me grow a little stronger

[Chorus]
So while we're waiting for the bombs to fall
I'll be keeping my head above the clouds
Hoping for a new beginning
Where once upon a time
Is on the horizon, and happily ever after all
Is coming after all
It's coming after all
