Waiting Room Songtext
von zubbyzubz

Late again for my appointment
I won′t say I missed the bus on purpose
It's just I get nervous
Don′t wanna talk feelings on a Thursday afternoon
It always comes around too soon

Fish in the waiting room
Maybe it's better here than the aquarium
Because nobody's got the energy
To tap on the glass and bother them
Or really to do anything at all

They could have been plastic for all I know
I never really walked up to say hello
Too distracted thinking about
What I would say this time around

I′m pretty much the same as I have been
School sucked, thanks for asking
Mum′s still dead, same as last week
Why does the time go so slowly


I hate how the silence gets so loud
When neither of us knows what to talk about
Try not to make it obvious
As you attempt to read the clock on the wall
It's only ten past four

Fish in the waiting room
Maybe they get lonely too
At least they′ve got some colour
But does it fade like the rest of ours do
Can they feel pain like the rest of us do

They could have been dead for all I know
Been going there for years and do they even live that long
Empty fish tanks for empty souls
Both filled with water that's a little too cold

I wish that I had said what was on my mind
But on our first day I told her I was fine
Now I′m not one to contradict
So I'll keep telling her life′s going swimmingly

I'm pretty much the same as I have been
My day was great, thanks for asking
I'm feeling okay, same as last week
And still the time goes so slowly
And still the time goes so slowly
Still it goes, still it goes, still it
