Wait

That’s the difference between you and me.

When we go our separate ways,

You go on living, while I can only wait.

You’re whole enough everyone wants you, and you go on to succeed

My success only lasted as long as I was with you, now I’m in the dark again.

All I can do is wait for you again, but you wait for no man.

No, this isn’t to your fault, it’s what makes you great

I just can’t stand my own failure.

Thinking of this, though, lets me see

Just how blessed I was to have been chosen by you.

I’ll never understand it, but I guess I’ll never have to.

It’s so dark down here.

 

Hello! echo Is there anyone down here with me?
