Equinox Avenue - Waiting Room Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sanitized halls, these fluorescent lights
Watch the clock tick away precious time
Through the glass, I see your vacant eyes
Daddy's hands shake like autumn leaves at night
Can't hold you close like I used to do
These latex walls between me and you

[Chorus]
In this waiting room of broken souls
Where memories fade and time moves slow
Through the mask, I'm trying to let you know
That your baby boy won't let you go, no
Won't let you go

[Verse 2]
Empty chairs six feet apart
Beep beep beeping like a broken heart
Nurses move like angels in disguise
Behind their shields, I see their tired eyes
Remember when you taught me how to drive?
Now you barely know I'm alive

[Bridge]
They say it's for the best, keep our distance
But how do I reach you through this resistance?
Your mind's playing tricks, slipping away
While I'm stuck here another goddamn day

[Chorus]
In this waiting room of broken souls
Where memories fade and time moves slow
Through the mask, I'm trying to let you know
That your baby boy won't let you go, no
Won't let you go

[Outro]
The machines keep humming their sad song
While I watch you drift where I can't follow along
But I'll be here daddy, until the end
Even if you forget me again and again
Even if you forget me again
