It was a square shaped room Dim lights, clean floor Big enough for two people Small enough for a heartbreak He called it the waiting room I called it the cursed room, the last room, the room where it all ended My doctor says it was where it all began Clear your head and tell me what happened I already told you, why won't you believe me Your head is hiding the truth from you, he says Am I not to trust my own self now? No, trust yourself but not your head And how are you going to treat a patient you don't trust I'm not treating you, I'm treating your head, let me in Was the room clean? No, it was filled with dust, I wanted to leave the moment he made me enter Was it white? It was sand gray Was he as short as you described him? No, no , he wasn't. Don't hold my hand I know you wish to help And so did he It always starts the same way This room is white, clean and big enough for two. Start from the beginning It was called the waiting room It fit two people One slightly broken, the other... didn't matter They fought, cried and slept together in the waiting room And they ended whatever they had in the waiting room, in the waiting room.

The waiting room
It was a square shaped room Dim lights, clean floor Big enough for two people Small enough for a heartbreak He called it the waiting room I called it the cursed room, the last room, the room where it all ended My doctor says it was where it all began Clear your head and tell me what happened I already told you, why won't you believe me Your head is hiding the truth from you, he says Am I not to trust my own self now? No, trust yourself but not your head And how are you going to treat a patient you don't trust I'm not treating you, I'm treating your head, let me in Was the room clean? No, it was filled with dust, I wanted to leave the moment he made me enter Was it white? It was sand gray Was he as short as you described him? No, no , he wasn't. Don't hold my hand I know you wish to help And so did he It always starts the same way This room is white, clean and big enough for two. Start from the beginning It was called the waiting room It fit two people One slightly broken, the other... didn't matter They fought, cried and slept together in the waiting room And they ended whatever they had in the waiting room, in the waiting room.
