Waiting on a Sign
Seeking Redemption: A Soul's Quest for Salvation
Lyrics
I didn't come here
I arrived at this place
Trying to find forgiveness
Not seeking forgiveness
I didn't come here
Not searching for a solution
Looking for a fix
Not seeking a remedy
I didn't come here
Not anticipating
In hopes of seeing
Curious about witnessing
How the unforsaken get their kicks
How those abandoned find pleasure
It's like a cry for help nobody hears
Describing a plea unheard
Close as you can get
Proximity without closeness
But I'm still nowhere near
Despite nearness, still distant
Now I'm just down here
Now relegated, just waiting
Waiting on a sign
Anticipating a signal
I'm running out of time
Running out of available time
I'm here waiting on a sign
Waiting for guidance
A mother is only happy as her saddest child
A mother's joy tied to her saddest child
To learn to live without can take awhile
Learning to live without takes time
And it's a long way back to anywhere
It's a lengthy journey to any destination
And it's not too late, oh but it's getting there
Opportunity isn't completely lost, but diminishing
Like a cry for help that nobody hears
Similar to an unheard plea
Close as you can get
Near but still far away
But I'm still nowhere near
Simply waiting for a signal
I'm just here waiting on your sign
Running out of time in this wait
I'm running out of time
Continuing to wait for guidance
I'm here waiting, waiting on a sign
So you blow a veil of smoke
Creating a smokescreen as a defense
To protect yourself from the joke
To shield oneself from life's irony
Look around this room and say,
Observing the surroundings and feeling out of place
"Man, I don't belong here."
Expressing a sense of not belonging
There's so many sides to the truth
Multiple perspectives on truth
But only one side to a fact
Only one side to a factual reality
What will we do with what we can't take back?
Contemplating irreversible actions
Like a cry, like a cry for help
Similar to a plea for help
That nobody hears
Unheard despite closeness
Close as you can get but I'm still
Proximity without true connection
Nowhere near
Still far from the desired state
I'm just down here
Now relegated to waiting
Waiting on a sign
Anticipating a signal
I'm running, I'm running out of time
Running out of available time
I'm waiting on a sign
Continuing to wait for guidance
Oh I'm waiting on a sign
Expressing a prolonged wait
Got me here, I'm waiting on a sign
Currently waiting for a sign
Just waiting on a sign
Simply waiting for guidance
I'm waiting on a sign
Anticipating a signal
Just waiting on a sign
Continuing to wait for guidance
