Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Typecast's song "Wait" reflect a sense of hopelessness and despair. The singer has given up on everything and feels as if the world is slowly killing them. The line "I gave up watching it all fall down taken away from me" suggests that the singer has lost something important to them, and they can no longer bear to witness the destruction around them. The phrase "my eyes are dead" conveys a sense of numbness and disconnection from the world, as if the singer has shut down emotionally.

The second half of the song is characterized by conflicting emotions. The singer has "waited too long" for something, implying that they have been patient for too long, and have not received what they were hoping for. They have also "forgiven too much," which could suggest that they have been taken advantage of or hurt by someone close to them, but have continued to forgive them anyway. However, "anger's telling me to bleed" indicates that their patience and forgiveness have reached a breaking point, and that the singer is struggling to contain their anger and frustration.

Overall, the lyrics of "Wait" speak to the human experience of loss, pain, and the struggle for emotional equilibrium in the face of adversity.

Line by Line Meaning

I gave up watching it all fall down
I became exhausted from witnessing everything crumble.

Taken away from me ebbing my eyes are dead
What was once mine has been removed, and I am losing my ability to see clearly.

This world is killing me not taking me home
I am being defeated by life, which does not offer me solace or refuge from my struggles.

Waited too long forgiving too much
I have been patient for too much time and granted forgiveness too freely.

Anger's telling me to bleed
My rage is urging me to release my emotions through self-harm.

Anger's telling me to go
My fury is tempting me to take action and lash out.
