Hurry Up and Wait
Hurry Up and Wait: Navigating Life's Suspense
Lyrics
I've been told to remember
I've been advised to remember
Keep your lemur eyes wide
Stay alert and observant like a lemur
Someday you'll make a life of this
Someday, you will build a life from this
So carry on, carry on
Continue, keep going
But i've become so offenseless
Despite having weapons, I've become defenseless
Despite these weapons i bear
Expressing vulnerability despite personal strengths
Have we toned up our finest
Have we improved ourselves to the best?
Or did we take this
Or did we make a mistake in doing so?
Too Far down
We might have gone too far
The road you know i'm scared to go down
A fear of venturing down a challenging path
I'm waking up anxious to lay back down
Feeling anxious upon waking, wanting to avoid reality
'Cause all i can do here is wait
All I can do now is wait
Just wait, i'll hurry up and wait
Expressing impatience, the cycle of hurry up and wait
Well i can't read her expression
Unable to understand her emotions
'Cause man this vixen she's sly
Describing a cunning and sly woman
As she keeps me suspended
Feeling out of control in a relationship
I've lost all control of this flight
Losing control of a situation or a relationship
Hiiii yeaaahhh yeaaahhh
An expression or sound, possibly indicating frustration
We've ravaged our chances to shine
We've ruined our opportunities to succeed
Would you take what i'm giving to you or did i take this
Questioning whether the other person appreciates the effort
Did we take this
Did we make a mistake?
Too far down
We might have gone too far
The road you know i'm scared to go down
Avoiding a difficult path out of fear
I'm waking up anxious to lay back down
Feeling restless, wanting to avoid facing reality
'Cause all i can do here is wait, just you wait
All I can do is wait, emphasizing the waiting aspect
So have it your way
Accept it the way you want
I know you'll be watching with gallant eyes
Anticipating someone observing with admiration
As we shake the wreckage
Shaking off the wreckage of a situation
And break from these hauntingly silent niiiiiights
Breaking free from hauntingly silent nights
Break from these silent nights
Breaking free from silent, oppressive periods
Will this take forever?
Questioning if the waiting will last forever
We might have a shot if we'd stray
Possibly having a chance if deviating from the usual
But what's another day
Considering the insignificance of waiting for another day
Of hurry up and wait
Emphasizing the repetitive nature of hurry up and wait
Hurry up and wait
Reiterating the frustration of waiting
Hurry up and waaaaait
Continuing to emphasize the act of waiting
It's all that you can do now
Acceptance of the current situation as the only option
