[Verse 1]

Fictionalizing a life I know won’t come but I so desperately want, it’s such a mistake

Rationalizing my reasoning for needing something so intangible, such a sad excuse to make

A home that’ll never be bought, goals that we’ll never get done

Things that we’ll never own, a story that’ll never be told

Reaching through a window that has no latch and only locks you in, it’s the greatest torture that is

Holding the door open for no one but yourself and you wonder

How did it get this way?

[Pre-Chorus]

Sights that’ll never be seen, visions crushed by reality

Plans that’ll never be made and only disappointment remains

A light that’ll never be lit, a life that we’ll never live

Stalled perpetually, wanting it all to begin

Writing songs for a world that’ll never hear them

[Chorus]

So I wait for all my life

Just to see it with my own two eyes

And I’m dreaming every night

Once it’s there, I’ll be satisfied

[Verse 2]

Recognizing the life I want requires me to become something I hate, such a fucking shame

But when it comes between your ideals and an ideal life with a person that’s ideal

Well it’s not much of a choice

[Pre-Chorus]

Success isn’t really fair

But I’ve seen it, I know that it’s there

Touched it with the tip of my hand, but it wasn’t mine to demand

Hope just seems like a scheme made by the strong to laugh at the weak

But I’ll abide anyway

Because you’re still there at the end of the day

[Chorus]

So I wait for all my life

Just to see it with my own two eyes

And I’m dreaming every night

Once it’s there, I’ll be satisfied

So I wait for all my life

Just to see it with my own two eyes

And I’m dreaming every night

Once it’s there, I’ll be satisfied
