I've been waiting
Oh I've been waiting for a time in my life
I need something to clear my mind
And leave the wake of the day far behind
You know I feel like a prisoner
Just making through another day
And it's all the same, to me
Just right before the sun goes down
Like the calm before a storm
I set my intention
Not to feel it anymore
I take me out, leave it all behind
Walking through the door
Down the streets in neon lights
Drowning deep into the night
Sitting here with a cigarette
Blowing all my money on a hopeless bet
Diving deep with a drink in hand
With all the problems that no one understands
Just another working man
Standing through the light of day
'Cause it's the only way I know
I know I could do better with a change in mind
I guess I'm happy now
Don't know the time
I take me out, leave it all behind
Walking through the door
Down the streets in neon lights
Drowning deep into the night
Driving on a long, dark road
I've seen these people I just don't really know
For some reason they ease my mind
To lead me to these spaces in need to find
Things are going way too fast
For the simple things in life
That are put at stake in the night
The truth in life
You will never find
Through a blaring door
In the neon light
I take me out, leave it all behind
Walking through the door
Down the streets in neon lights
Drowning deep into the night
