The mention of God Makes me strange The battle of words And the wars we wage And the castles of time We build up straight Just to run out of room And we build sideways Sometimes I feel My blood runs cold And the conscious stain Won't wash away Tell me what are we waiting for And the acid rain Right through my veins Tell me what are we waiting for And I'm catching a bird And it makes me feel Like I'm talking to her Through the atmosphere And I know that I'm right But can't let go The beauty in flight And the world we know
Sometimes I feel My blood runs cold And the conscious stain Won't wash away Tell me what are we waiting for And the acid rain Right through my veins Tell me what are we waiting for We're so far gone But we can't let go We're so far gone That my blood runs cold The conscious stain Won't wash away Tell me what are we waiting for The acid rain Right through my veins Tell me what are we waiting for The hurricanes and tidal waves Tell me what are we waiting for The conscious stain Won't wash away Tell me what are we waiting for
