Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Run away, I'm a traveling man
Been working every day
I watch you as you hesitate
Walking through the rain
I bet against the company, again
They try to redefine
Everything that I know and love
Gotta know you're mine
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Feel the way that the wild wind blows through the room
Like a nail down through the heart
That just don't beat the same anymore
That might as well be gone
[Chorus]
I'm in my finest hour
Can I be more than just a fool?
It always gets so hard to see
Right before the moon
[Verse 3]
Far away, Ma, there's a black sun rising overhead
There's a moon through the midnight rain
How can I surround myself in time and time again?
How can I be free?
Just want to lay in the moonlight
And see the light shine in
See you in the outline
It never gets too dark to find
Anybody at any time
[Chorus]
I'm at the darkened hillside
And there's a haze right between the trees
And I can barely see you
You're like an ocean in between the waves
[Chorus]
Waiting
Waiting
Storming
Storming
I wanna ride on the top
I wanna rise up against it here
[Verse 4]
Waiting
Got me leaning up against
On my mind, on this roadside
And you can't go back again
I've got to rise up against it here
On this road
Oh no, alright
[Verse 5]
I've been waiting
With my hand on my chest
Call me
'Cause I can't go back again
You've got to rise up against it here
For what's right, right here
[Verse 6]
I've been waiting
I've been leaning up against
On the roadside
And I can't go back again
You've got to rise up against it here
Once more, woo!
[Outro]
I've been waiting
I've been waiting
