Wait or go
6CycleMind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting here in my door
From the top of my head
Down to this narrow floor
I've been so awake
I've been so afraid
* Tell me what to do,
I don't know why I'm hopeless
In this show
Tell me it doesn't hurt,
If I'll find out
That I'm alone
Coz I've been waiting for so long
Do I need to wait here or go
Wait or go... Wait or go...
Coz I've been waiting for so long
Do I need to wait here or go
* Tell me what to do,
I don't know why I'm hopeless
In this show
Tell me it doesn't hurt,
If I'll find out
That I'm alone
Repeat 2x
* Tell me what to do,
I don't know why I'm hopeless
Repeat 3x
Wait or go... Wait or go...
Repeat 3x

I've been hopeless
I feel powerless and lost
Waiting here in my door
I've been stuck in one place and hesitant to move forward
From the top of my head
From my mind and thoughts
Down to this narrow floor
To my current situation, which feels constrained and limited
I've been so awake
I've been aware and conscious of my circumstances and emotions
I've been so afraid
I've been scared of the unknown and making the wrong decision
To know... To know...
To understand what path to take and what will happen in the future
Do I need to wait here or go
I'm unsure if I should stay in my current situation or take action and make a change
Tell me what to do,
I'm asking for guidance and direction from someone else
I don't know why I'm hopeless
I don't understand why I feel so helpless and uncertain
In this show
In this situation or circumstance I find myself in
Tell me it doesn't hurt,
I'm hoping that finding out the answer won't be too difficult or painful
If I'll find out
If I discover the truth or make a decision
That I'm alone
That I will be on my own and without support, if I choose that path
Wait or go... Wait or go...
This is the decision I must make and I'm stuck between the two options
