The Wait (Mashed Up Remix)

​The Wait ​[Singer A] By the rusted gate at daybreak Where the ivy chokes the pine Sits a ghost inside a heavy coat Whose watch has frozen time ​[Melodic Interlude] ​[Singer B] The dial turns... The static screams Floorboards bending Shadows stretching In my dreams ​[Singer A] Oh, prisoner of the silence Hands folded in your lap You are hunting for a memory Caught inside an open trap ​[Singer B] The dial turns... Like thunder on a hollow street Every rhythm in the hall Echoes back a losing beat ​[Transition] ​[Singer A] He counts the dust in sunlight Reads the letters on the floor Rehearses what he’ll finally say Then forgets it at the door ​[Singer B] Cold blue embers On hollowed eyes Every truth in the city Was dressed in disguises ​[Singer A] Oh, prisoner of the silence Breath fogging up the glass You are waiting for a future That has already become the past ​[Instrumental] ​[Singer B] The dial turns... Copper rain and jagged air One look at the empty stairs Is a weight I cannot bear ​[Singer A] By the rusted gate at daybreak If you listen for the sound You can hear the seconds dropping Like a fever to the ground ​[Singer B] And somewhere in the distance I’m still awake... Calling out your name [Fades Out]
