Waiting

Waiting

A Poem by Raven's Soul

What the hell are we waiting for?
Beating out heads into the concrete
Raise our fists into the air
We've got the right be angry
Why run when we've nowhere left to run any more?
Let's stand up and be invincible again!

Gonna stand up and face my enemy
Wipe the dirt off my hands
Gonna grip the chains harder
It's time to do or die in these situations
The strength of our convictions
Will carry us through

Love is a battlefield
I'm gonna walk through the hellfires
Of the waters of our hearts
All just for you

What the hell are we all waiting for?
Stop beating our heads into the concrete
Let's raise our fists into the air
We've got the right to be angry
When everything around us blows apart
And we've nowhere left to run any more
Why do we bother to run away anyway?
Let's stand up and be invincible again!

The road ahead is a complete mystery
Everything behind us is just buried in rust
Going either left or right it's just death
All we can do is keep going straight
Straight into the light

I've burned in the waters of hate
Now I'll dry my tears
And swallow my fears
And hold my head up so goddamn high
Nothin's gonna tear me down again
No, not again!

And what the hell are we all just waiting around for?
Stop beating our heads into the cold concrete
Stop stabbing us in our hearts
When everything was meant to be broken
And everything else is covered in the dust of the lies
All I ever wanted was to speak the truth
And the truth is, I just don't give a f**k any more!
Let's stand up and be invincible again!

I'm gonna grip the chains harder
Gonna pull it all down
I don't care if I bleed some more
I've bled so much, I've nothing left inside to bleed out again!
All my tears have been dried up
All my fears, I've swallowed
So I'll just stand here and look you in the eye
As I hold my head up so goddamn high
You'll never, never, ever tear me down again!
No, never again!

The road ahead is a mystery
Everything behind us is covered in rust
To either the right or the left is death
So all we can ever do is keep going straight ahead
Straight ahead into the light
Let's stand up and be invincible again!
