[Verse 1]

Candy talks to strangers, thinks her life's in danger

No one gives a damn about her hair

It's lonely down on Track Street, she used to go by Jackie

The cops, they'll steal your dreams and they'll kill your prayers

[Pre-Chorus]

Take a number where the blood just barely dried

[Chorus]

Wait for something better

No one behind you

Watchin' your shadows

This feeling won't go

[Verse 2]

Crooked wheels keep turnin', children, are you learnin'?

Acclimatized, but don't you lose the plot

A history of blisters, your brothers and your sisters

Somewhere in the pages we forgot

[Pre-Chorus]

Take a number Jackie where the blood just barely dried

You know I'm on your side

[Chorus]

Wait for something better

No one behind you

Watching your shadows

You got to be stronger than the story

Don't let it blind you

Rivers are shallow

This feeling won't go

[Bridge]

Your sky is full of dreams

But you don't know how to fly

I don't have a simple answer

But I know that I could answer, ooh

Something better

[Outro]

This feeling won't go

Wait for it

Wait for it

Wait for it

Wait for it

Go (Wait for something better)
