Well I guess it’s implied that I wear my heart on my sleeve
Because when love is spelled backwards the four letters don’t mean the same thing
And the bomb has been dropped time to move with god speed
I can’t believe the sights and sounds of my post apocalyptic speech
I miss my old earth; I miss my pennyroyal tea
I miss my girl, my sweet flower, though she’s never met me
And if there’s one thing I remember, it’s forget about feelings
Because I chased my girl for eternity, and now she’s bitten me
I’m still waiting
I’m forever waiting
Lying here in my undead state, if I had tears I know I’d cry
But my leg is stuck to this wall by chain; I count bugs to pass the time
Who lives here? What will they be? As these questions come to mind
A silhouette appears, turns off the light and leaves me behind
I miss my girl, my sweet black dove, my kitten and my swine
I’ll just lay here, I know you’ll care, and love me in due time
I’m still waiting
I’m forever waiting
