[Verse 1] Your help is on the way Just sing yourself a song and wait Nothing was promised in the first place But we suffer for as long as we can take Then the suffering, one way or the other It will go away [Verse 2] It's quiet and you wake You make the bed for two you always make Though half-empty from some days before He lay down on the kitchen floor You struggled but you could not afford The weight And in a senseless moment Everything you're working toward Was taken away [Verse 3] So you sold everything that you didn't want You sold everything that you didn't want You sold everything that you didn't want to save Yeah you sold everything that you didn't want You sold everything you didn't want And what you couldn't sell you gave away Now you've a few years left give or take And I think I should say [Verse 4] As long as you're waiting As long as you're waiting Since you have nothing to do with your hands You might as well pray I am no god-fearing man, but I am afraid Of something that I cannot quite explain [Verse 5] So you sold everything that you didn't want You sold everything that you didn't want You sold everything you didn't want to save [Bridge] This marks a vulnerable part of me I guess it runs in my family I guess it runs in my family Pa**ing the fire down to me I only fear for my family I've got it in me Got it in my genes [Verse 6] Misery loves company So careful of the friends you keep [Chorus 2x] I wanna live but I don't wanna live I wanna live but I don't wanna live I wanna live but I don't wanna live This thing is out there I don't know where it is [Verse 7] I'm waving the white flag, the fire's ceased I don't want any enemies I'm waving the white flag, the fire's ceased I don't want any enemies So why they still digging their claws in me?
