I wait so patiently
for the world to see
what I do know
it is such a blow
I listen to empty words
lies only to be heard
I wait for honor to win
seemingly that is now a sin
tick tock goes the clock
my heart turns to rock
slowly it stops beating
my life is retreating
saying it's last goodbyes
as I close my eyes
I gave up my life
to show you no strife
it was always your choice
to finally be the voice
