The Other Line

Now tell me the truth
Don’t make me wait too long
You have to prove that I shouldn’t move on
I’m sitting here watching the tick of the clock
I hear my own heartbeat, I want it to stop
Doing next to nothing except breaking apart
And this tension just cuts to the bone
Get out or give me reason
Shut up, I’ll do it alone
And I won’t waste another year sitting in here
I’m waiting for something more
So I’m just stuck here in the meantime
Waiting on the other line
Now tell me the truth
Don’t make me wait too long
You have to prove that I shouldn’t move on
Giving in is the price I pay
These words alone hurt enough to walk away
You think I hang on everything you say
And worst of all, you’re predictable
I really must be moving onward to something
I’m standing right here and I came from nothing
The harder you fall, the more pain you can take
You love when the pressure just pulls me apart
You’re fueling the fire, it just won’t stop
It keeps growing and burning and taking my world down in flames
You’re breaking the ground that you walk on
No one around you is safe
Your thoughts are as loud as a shotgun
They keep blowing me away
Away, away, away
So we’re just stuck here in the mean time
Waiting on the other line
So we’re just stuck here on the meantime
Waiting on the other line
