Waiting For The Silence - The Living End

Opinions can be fatal

If you’re not careful

They can lead you on the right track?

Or stab you in the back?

You say I should know better

That I should just agree

But honey hearts don’t come with guarantees

I hate to break it to you

But I’m obviously not who you want me to be

And it’s a cowardly act now

I didn’t mean to react now

Your mind is under attack

And you’re asking yourself, 'why?'

I can’t live without the attention

I feel lost, got no direction

I’m waiting for the silence to end now

Waiting for the smoke to clear

Waiting for someone to surrender

Don’t you remember how it was last year?

When all of the boys were making their noise

And the girls were trying hard to pretend

We had it all back then

Now we’re waiting for the silence to end

Secrets can be hurtful

And the truth can sometimes kill it seems

But be careful what you wish for

Because from over here, the grass doesn’t look too green

And it’s a cowardly act now

I didn’t mean to react now

Your mind is under attack

And you’re asking yourself, 'why?'

I can’t live without the attention

I feel lost, got no direction

I’m waiting for the silence to end now

Waiting for the smoke to clear

Waiting for someone to surrender

Don’t you remember how it was last year?

When all of the boys were making their noise

And the girls were trying hard to pretend

We had it all back then

Now we’re waiting for the silence to end

Is there any point shifting the blame?

Is there any point chasing a runaway train?

I can’t live without the attention

I feel lost, got no direction

I’m waiting for the silence to end now

Waiting for the smoke to clear

Waiting for someone to surrender

Don’t you remember how it was last year?

When all of the boys were making their noise

And the girls were trying hard to pretend

We had it all back then

Now we’re waiting for the silence to end

Waiting for the silence to end
