We Used to Wait

I used to write I used to write letters. I used to sign my name. I used to sleep at night before the flashing light settled deep in my brain. But by the time we met, by the time we met the times had already changed. So I never wrote a letter I never took my true heart. I never wrote it down. So when the lights cut out I was lost standing in the wilderness downtown. Now our lives are changing fast. Now our lives are changing fast. Hope that something pure can last. Hope that something pure can last. It may seem strange how we used to wait for letters to arrive. But what's stranger still is how something so small can keep you alive. We used to wait. We used to waste hours just walking around. We used to wait. all those wasted lives in the wilderness downtown. We used to wait. We used to wait. We used to wait. Sometimes it never came. Sometimes it never came. Still moving through the pain I'm gonna write, a letter to my true love I'm gonna sign my name. Like a patient on a table, I wanna walk again, gonna move through the pain. Now our lives are changing fast. Now our lives are changing fast. Hope that something pure can last. Hope that something pure can last. We used to wait. We used to wait. We used to wait. Sometimes it never came. Sometimes it never came. Still moving through the pain. We used to wait. We used to wait. We used to wait. We used to wait for it. We used to wait for it and now they're screaming “Sing the chorus again!” We used to wait for it. We used to wait for it. Now we're screaming “Sing the chorus again!” I used to wait for it. I used to wait for it. Hear my voice screaming “Sing the chorus again!” Wait for it! Wait for it! Wait for it!
