Everyone's Waiting

.

.

.

I know all the lines to say

The part I'm expected to play

But in the reflection I am worlds away

.

As I put my costume on

Eyelashes one by one

Been doing this so long I can tie the knot

Behind my back

.

And everyone's waiting

But it's getting harder to hear

what my heart is saying

Cause everyone's waiting

.

Just swallow and breathe, she says

Remember this ain't for you it's for them

And all of those painful lessons you've had to learn

You gotta use them now or never

.

Cause everyone's waiting

But it's getting harder to hear

What my heart keeps saying

Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off

.

When everyone's waiting

It makes it harder to hear

what my heart keeps saying

Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off

.

But everyone's waiting

I hear that answers appear

when you just stand still

But make it all, how do you make it all stop

When everyone's waiting?

Everyone's waiting
