Waiting
RKVC Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't count me out,
Don't let me down,
Never told you this but I need you around.

I'm a mess,
Got problems,
Too many drinks,
Now I'll be honest...

My foot is on the ledge,
And I need you to know,
Dirt is falling 20 stories below.

I'm waiting,
You're waiting,
What the hell am I waiting for?
I'm waiting,
You're waiting,
Don't want you to wait on me anymore.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.
Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.

You stuck around,
I let you down,
And all this time I was just too proud.

I'm back and forth,
You stand your ground,
I'm hard to love,
But someday I'll come around.

My foot is on the ledge,
And I need you to know,
Dirt is falling 20 stories below.

I'm waiting,
You're waiting,
What the hell am I waiting for?
I'm waiting,
You're waiting,
Don't want you to wait on me anymore.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.
Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.

I'm sorry,
I'm still fighting,
I need you,
Don't give up on me...

Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.
Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.

I'm waiting,
You're waiting,
What the hell am I waiting for?
I'm waiting,
You're waiting,
Don't want you to wait on me anymore.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.




Whoa, whoa, whoa...
Still waiting.
