Waiting For Something Lyrics

Putting yourself down
When you say I have to leave
Whoa-oh-oh

Putting yourself down
When you say I have to go
Yeah-ah-ah

Pulling yourself down
I’m standing clear of the door
Waiting for something

Whoa-oh-oh

I don’t know why
I do these things
I always regret them
In the end

Putting yourself down
When you say I have to leave
Whoa-oh-oh

Putting yourself down
When you say I have to go
Whoa-oh-oh

I don’t know why
I do these things
I always regret them
It’s just too deep

Taking your own time
I’m standing clear of the door
Waiting for something

Wasting your own time
I’m standing clear of the door
Waiting for something

I don’t know why
I do these things
I always regret them
In the end

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

great band. Great song. pretty clear meaning to it. I think everyone knows what it feels like to put yourself down and regret your decisions, and just waiting around for something you want to happen.
