The Wait

  • Motives changing, day to day
    The fire increases, masks decay
    I look at the river, white foam floats down
    The body's poisoned, gotta sit tight
    The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait

    After wakening, silence grows
    The screams subside, distortion shows
    Mutant thoughts of bad mouthed news
    Is just another birth of distorted views
    The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait
    The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait Writer/s: BRANDON SCOTT SIDEBOTTOM, BRIAN CRADDOCK, DAVID MICHAEL NADOLSKI
