What Are You Waiting for? - Paradise Fears

I think I’m going broke, from paying my dues

I’ve been tossed and turned, and left black and blue

I’ve been faced with decisions where I had to choose

It’s either one you win, one you lose

These times will get you so damn mad

You gotta roll with the punches, and smile with the sad

Tell myself when I finally look back

I’ll think, «Oh my god what a life I had»

We’re alive

We’re alive

What are you waiting for?

We’re alive

We’re alive

What are you waiting for?

I remember when my Dad told me he thought I could make it

This world is only there for those willing to take it

Now I’ll stop at nothing, no matter the cost

I’ll feel a thousand loves, a thousand loss

There’s a world that I’ve heard of, I’m planning to see it

I can be anything if I only believe it

Tell myself that when I finally look back

I’ll think, Oh my god what a life I’ve had

They say there’s heaven if you wait, I think I’m living right through it You

wanna live forever, huh?

Then just do it

They say it’s a long road, but lately I don’t know

If this life I’m living is all that I’m meant for

So I’mma live my life by my Mom’s little advice

She said «You love it?

Embrace it.

You want it?

Then chase it.»

What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?
