Waiting For
Impatient Thoughts: Yearning for EscapeLyrics
If I was stuck inside now
Expressing a hypothetical situation of being confined indoors
Would you see me?
Questioning whether someone would notice or pay attention
Would you take me out there
Asking if the person would take them to where others are
where all the people be?
Desire to be in a social setting with people around
cnd everyone is out here
Observing everyone's presence
Looking at us
Feeling observed or judged by others
But I just wish that I could be at home writing this chorus
Wanting to be alone to write a specific part of the song
oh oh oh
Repeating the feeling of being torn between locations
Is this where I'm supposed to be?
Questioning if the current situation is the right place to be
no
Clear negation of being in the right place
oh oh oh
Reiteration of doubt about someone staying
cnd would you stick around with me?
Questioning if the person would remain present
no
Assertion that the person won't stay
I know what you're thinking about
Awareness of the thoughts or assumptions about their situation
So what you waiting for, what you waiting for
Encouraging action instead of hesitation
I know what you're thinking about
Repeated encouragement to act
So what you waiting for, what you waiting for
Admitting to faking an excuse for not being present
Called in sick today, you know I'm lying
Admission of lying about being sick
Told you it's my head but the note says that I'm dying
Admitting the deception about the health condition
Got into my car, stuck my head out of the window singing
Indication of engaging in a carefree act despite the lie
oh oh oh oh
Repetition of the feeling of being torn
I know what you're thinking about
Reinforcing awareness of the thoughts or assumptions
So what you waiting for, what you waiting for
Encouragement to act instead of delaying
I know what you're thinking about
Repeated encouragement to take action
So what you waiting for, what you waiting for
Reiteration of the need to stop waiting and act
Gonna stay inside
Decision to remain indoors
(What you waiting for?)
Questioning the need to act
So don't even try
Encouragement not to attempt something
(What you waiting for?)
Discouragement from trying
Stuck in my head
Feeling mentally confined
(What you waiting for?)
Struggling to get out of bed
Can't get out of my bed
Expressing difficulty in getting up
(What you waiting for?)
Acknowledging awareness of thoughts or assumptions
I know what you're thinking about
Encouragement to take action instead of waiting
So what you waiting for, what you waiting for
Repeated encouragement to act without hesitation
I know what you're thinking about
Reiteration of the need to stop waiting and take action
So what you waiting for, what you waiting for
Final repetition of the encouragement to act
