Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And tell me, where does the time really go?
Tell me, when is this moment we're all waiting for?
In a wasteland so barren
A dead zone where nothing can grow
[PreChorus]
I swear I have been here before
I'm pleading for something till my bed is sore
Standing in water that's been rising before I was born
And time alone can suffocate
Choking on everything we made
Burning through each day
[Chorus]
I swear to God this can't wait one more minute, one more day
I feel the ground shaking underneath me
There's a lot here at stake
If you're hearing what I'm saying, just nod if you understand me
Just nod if you understand me
[Verse 2]
Expecting to grow to infinity
Is like building a boat designed to sink
Are you saving the world so desperately?
Or are you holding a gun, demanding peace?
[PreChorus]
Because the line that is drawn
Between nightmares and dreams
Is thin like a razor, and we're fast asleep
When do we smile, yeah, and when do we weep?
[Chorus]
I swear to God this can't wait one more minute, one more day
I feel the ground shaking underneath me
There's a lot here at stake
If you're hearing what I'm saying, just nod if you understand me
[Bridge]
Just nod
If you think it's going all too fast
Oh, just nod
If you think that maybe this can't last
Oh, just nod
[Chorus]
I swear to God this can't wait one more minute, one more day
I feel the ground shaking underneath me
There's a lot here at stake
If you're hearing what I'm saying, just nod if you understand me
[Outro]
Well, just nod
Well, just nod
Well, oh, well, just nod
