While you wait for the others
To make it all worthwhile
All your useless pretentions
Are weighing on my time
You could beg for forgiveness
As long as you like
Or just wait out the evening
You'll only leave me dry
Yes you'll only leave me dry
So I'll ask you kindly to make your way

And what was there
The perfect glare
We all fall through

While you wait on the answers
That I'll pretend to find
Keeping up with emotions
Still occupies our time
You could hope for some substance
As long as you like
Or just wait out the evening
And always ask me why
Yes, you'll only leave me dry
So I'll ask you kindly to make your way

And what was left
The perfect glare
We all fall through

And all we want

And what was there
And what was there
And what wasn't there
