I'm Waiting Lyrics
one question: what can't be done
you tear me down with the same thing
there's nothing thee and it's begun
what can you do when it all drains?
down there you go always
see if i care, faded
down, don't you know where i'll be
'cause i'm here, on my own
waiting, when i'm waiting
(don't you know)
i've been here before,
and i don't care where i'm going
so i'll say...
when you walk don't leave a note
just put your hands on the back door
when you talk, it's just a joke
just know, i can't take it anymore
down there, you go always
see if i care, faded
down, don't you know where i'll be
'cause i'm here, on my own
waiting, when i'm waiting
(don't you know)
i've been here before,
and i don't care where i'm going
so i'll be, waiting (waiting)
when i'm waiting (downtown now)
i'll tell you once more
that, as long as you're gone
then i'll say
outside there's no place i can hide
and your dead of time
is anything alright
when the wind tries
make storm walls outside
you'll be outside
i'm in here and i'll guard
waiting, when i'm waiting
(don't you know)
i've been here before,
and i don't care where i'm going
so i'll be, waiting (waiting)
when i'm waiting (don't you know)
i'll tell you once more
that as long as you're gone
and i'll say...
and i'll stay, and i'll stay
and you'll go then i'll stay
stay...
you tear me down with the same thing
there's nothing thee and it's begun
what can you do when it all drains?
see if i care, faded
down, don't you know where i'll be
'cause i'm here, on my own
(don't you know)
i've been here before,
and i don't care where i'm going
so i'll say...
just put your hands on the back door
when you talk, it's just a joke
just know, i can't take it anymore
see if i care, faded
down, don't you know where i'll be
'cause i'm here, on my own
(don't you know)
i've been here before,
and i don't care where i'm going
so i'll be, waiting (waiting)
when i'm waiting (downtown now)
i'll tell you once more
that, as long as you're gone
then i'll say
and your dead of time
is anything alright
when the wind tries
make storm walls outside
you'll be outside
i'm in here and i'll guard
(don't you know)
i've been here before,
and i don't care where i'm going
so i'll be, waiting (waiting)
when i'm waiting (don't you know)
i'll tell you once more
that as long as you're gone
and i'll stay, and i'll stay
and you'll go then i'll stay
stay...

suprisingly still no comment this song is good, although not the best in their album sounds like tyson ritter kinda hate his ex in this song :P doesn't wanna see her anymore
i like this song alot, i think IT IS one of the best songs on the album. course we all got different tastes
one of my favs for the moment. it's nice to see aar back on the map.
in the song it's actually "downtown now" instead of "don't you know"...but either way good song
Lostprophets totally ripped off the chorus of this song... Check it out: http://media.putfile.com/lostprophetsallamericanrejects
So, the chorus' sound similair, i'll have you know Lostprophets have been around way longer than AAR.
So no they didn't "TOTALLY RIP OFF THE CHORUS" and you can stop feeling big and clever that you pointed out a similarity. Fucktard.
do your research jebend. Lostprophets HAVE been round alot longer. And frankly i couldn't have put it better than our.lady.of.sorrows
like the song, but not a favourite of mine. x
first of all, The All-American Rejects are my number one band but I also have 2 albums of LostProphets and working on the 3e ;) just one day of work and a free day to go shopping needed... but what I wanted to say is that Our.lady.of.sorrows and rebecca kind of got their dates confused. the move along album of The AAR came out july 2005 and Liberation Transmission of LostProphets june 2006. almost a year later... I just wanted to clear that up. and I don't think any band copies another band (the way that is said in this discussion) on purpose... oh,... LOVE THIS SONG!!! :D Xx
Oh so many problems (and maybe the same problems over and over again) in this guy's relationship that he is getting used to it and the girl still cares but he's loosing interest to fight for their relationship fast so he doesn't care anymore.
uhh i think everytime you wrote "say" it's actually "stay"? i don't know[?] it just makes more sense to me that way. and it's hard to read it in the album booklet, but i think that's what it says. actually i have no idea, it might very well be "say." but stay would make more sensee. :]
