Leftmore - We're All Just Waiting Lyrics

There was a woman
She was under the underpass
And she was crying
In a patch of weathered glass
From where she was kneeling
No one heard her at all
So all her prayers
They fell at the dark gray wall
And I saw her
I ain't never felt so lost
And she saw me, as if to say
Hey kid, this is all your fault

One night I gambled
And I lost all my bets
But the man sitting next to me
He hit on 7s
And I watched him
As he scrambled for the door
With chips spilling out of his pockets
Onto the floor
He said all of his prayers
Had been answered from above
And it was right there and then I thought maybe
God was in the wrong spot

Oh, we're all just waiting for someone to come along
And he'll have all the answers to what we've been praying for
So we'll lay in grave beds and be scared of things like wars
And kill all those doubts that say, "Hey man
We could have been more
We could have been more"

One night, a girl, she grabbed my dreams
And she wouldn't let go
I fought, I kicked, I screamed, I yelled
Until it all just broke

Oh, we're all just waiting for someone to come along
And he'll have all the answers to what we've been praying for
So we'll lay in grave beds and be content with things like wars
And kill all those doubts that say, "Hey man
We could have been more
We should have been more"
