Avett Brothers - Another Is Waiting lyrics

It's a fake, it's a hoax, it's a nowhere road where no one goes anywhere, anyhow Well, you're following your heart rate down She's a rose, she's a queen but she's staring at a magazine In the dark, on that path where they doctor every photograph Another is waiting, she isn't saying anything If you care, if you like well, I'm standing in the lantern light with our weapons and our love and I use them both to cover us Another is waiting, she isn't saying anything But I love you and I care so you've got to get off that conveyor belt, If I could, I would come right in and take you off myself It's a fake, it's a con The nature of the road you're on lets me see your skeleton well before your life is done Another is waiting, she isn't saying anything
