What Am I Waiting For

I want to tell you, but I don't want to know
If you don't love me, will I let you go?
If you turn me down, will I still be there?
Will you turn around, will you let me care?

I'm still standing, arms open wide
What am I waiting for
What am I waiting for

Am I waiting for you to shatter my night, so I can have another reason to cry?
Am I waiting for you to crush my life, and then I never say goodbye?
What am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?

The shadows surround me, me and my dreams
Of the way we are, and how we could be
Fear corrodes, corrupts, and breaks
Every step I try, every step I make

There's lightning cutting my words tonight
In every flash I see your face
Every strike this storm makes
I'm still standing, arms open wide
What am I waiting for
What am I waiting for

Am I waiting for you to shatter my night, so I can have another reason to cry?
Am I waiting for you to crush my life, and then never try to say goodbye?
What am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?

I can't think straight, you're twisting my mind
I can't stay asleep, I can't even try
Every dream just reminds me what isn't real
And keeps me in the pain I feel

I never know, is this the right time?
What am I waiting for
What am I waiting for

Am I waiting for you to shatter my night, so I can have another reason to cry?
Am I waiting for you to crush my life, and then never try to say goodbye?
What am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?
What am I waiting for?

What am I waiting for?
