[Verse 1] I sent the words and turned the screen down Watched the window change its light Nothing came to fill the silence Nothing told me I was right Steam was fading from the coffee Clouds were rearranging slow I thought nothing was occurring But my mind had somewhere to go [Chorus] I’m waiting Only waiting In the distance you have left And the space between the answers Is creating what comes next I’m waiting Still here waiting Nothing comes to make it clear But because you haven’t answered I can finally hear myself [Verse 2] All the words I chose to leave out Changed their order in my chest By refusing quick conclusions I could see what mattered less There was ticking in the hallway There was pressure in the chair Empty time was never empty Something living gathered there [Chorus] I’m waiting Only waiting In the distance you have left And the space between the answers Is creating what comes next I’m waiting Still here waiting Nothing comes to make it clear But because you haven’t answered I can finally hear myself [Bridge] Let one second follow another Let the day refuse to rush Let the thing that comes too slowly Reach me slowly when it comes [Final Chorus] I’m waiting Simply waiting In a moment without proof And the wish that isn’t granted Still gives tomorrow something to do I’m waiting And that’s enough I don’t need to know the end There are things that only matter When they take their time to land [Outro] The screen lights up I let it glow Not yet Not yet
