When I sleep, a woman weeps, he's burdened by the time
She longs for all her younger years she's so pretty and sublime
The moving finger writes, but doesn't wait for her
Her destiny waits patiently then passes in a blur
Everybody's waiting for you to break
And everyone is waiting for you to break
Everyone is waiting for you to break
So take it easy girl
She's ice cold, forget about it
I suppose another verse wouldn't hurt, it could be worse
But do me a favor, hun, pick up the pen and put away the gun
The reason I'm suspended here while the weeping witch patrols
I'm powerless, I cannot rest, I don't know the controls
Let's look at what you suggest
Your advice is clearly the best
But will it help the demon rest
Let's here it now, I won't protest
The brackets, braces, lines and spaces
The numbers they do fly
But all I see in front of me is how the time drags by
Everybody's waiting for you to break
And everyone is waiting for you to break
Everyone is waiting for you to break
So take it easy girl
She's ice cold, forget about it
Won't end up like her, won't end up like you
What I want to do's what I'm gonna do
Won't end up like you, won't end up like her
I am sorry sir, I am sorry sir
Everybody's waiting for you to break
And everyone is waiting for you to break
Everyone is waiting for you to break
So take it easy girl
She's ice cold, forget about it
