Lyrics
Standing waiting for a man to show
Expressing anticipation, standing and waiting for someone to arrive.
Wide eyed one eye fixed on the door
Vigilantly watching the door with intense focus.
This waiting's killing me, it's wearing me down
Impatient waiting is emotionally and physically exhausting.
Day in day out, my feet are burning holes in the ground
A repetitive, tiring routine with a sense of urgency.
Darkness warmer than a bedroom floor
Darkness is more comforting than a cold bedroom floor.
Want someone to hold me close forever more
Longing for lasting closeness and intimacy.
I'm a sleeping dog, but you can't tell
Being calm on the surface, but potentially dangerous.
When I'm on the prowl you'ld better run like hell
A warning that danger is imminent when in pursuit.
You know it makes sense, don't even think about it
Emphasizing the obvious, discouraging contemplation of certain actions.
Life and death are just things you do when you're bored
Trivializing life and death as mere pastimes when bored.
Say fear's a man's best friend
Stating that fear is a companion or ally for men.
You add it up it brings you down
Accumulating fear has a depressive impact.
Home is living like a man on the run
Describing a restless existence, living as if constantly fleeing.
Trails leading nowhere, where to my son?
Pondering the purpose of life's journey and its destination.
We're already dead, just not yet in the ground
Suggesting a state of emotional numbness or detachment.
Take my helping hand I'll show you around
Offering assistance to navigate through life's challenges.
You know it makes sense, don't even think about it
Reiterating the futility of certain actions, discouraging thought.
Life and death are just things you do when you're bored
Repeating the idea that life and death are casual pursuits when bored.
Say fear's a man's best friend
Reaffirming that fear is a companion or ally for men.
You add it up it brings you down
Reiterating that accumulated fear can be emotionally burdensome.
