Wait for the Signal

I think it's strange
We both don't look the same
It's only been two years and sixteen days
But I've been trying not to count it
'Since you don't want to talk about it
And I keep it tucked away like an animal in its cage
But I'm not one to judge you
Or hold something above you
I just think it might be time to rearrange
And you can wait for the signal while your heart, it dies
Keep confiding in the ones who wipe the tears from your eyes
And just keep playing the games, the ones you can control
I know it's hard
To find a reason
When you build yourself up
And dress yourself down
And I'm not one to judge you
Or hold something above you
I just think it might be time to make a change
And you just wait for the signal while your heart, it dies
Keep confiding in the ones who wipe the tears from your eyes
And just listen to the good things while the bad they take their toll
And you just wait for the signal, no, you never act
And you treat love like the monkey on your back
And you keep playing the games, the ones you can control
And I'm sick, and I'm tired
Of shoving my hand in the fire
And I'm not dumb, and I'm not blind
And I know you're a fucking liar
And you just wait for the signal while your heart, it dies
Keep confiding in the ones who wipe the tears from your eyes
And just listen to the good things while the bad they take their toll
And you just wait for the signal, no, you never act
And you treat love like the monkey on your back
And you keep playing the games, the ones you can control
