Well, I found proof that you’re aloof
When the world passes you by
And I’m amazed by the haze and that you don’t even try
To get away from the fray that’s cluttering your mind
All alone, on your own
You’ve run out of things to hide
Someday tides come in and somehow lives begin
When someone burns the town, everybody lies down
I’m feeling stuck and out of luck
When you come for your prey
And nothing’s here, you’re in the clear
Don’t waste another day
This is a joke so go for broke the minute that you can
I won’t ignore because I’m sure you’ve found another man
I’m upset about all this
I never thought there’d be a change in you
And it turns out without a doubt
The plans I’ve made have sorely fallen through
And I won’t sit and wait, no, no
I will not sit and wait
And light my cigarette, no, no
I will not sit and wait
