Your steady stream of throwaway words has flooded

this already crowded room

I've lost my taste for the race and the running

there's nothing here to prove


all I want

want to know

is what you're waiting for


I'll flood the wreckage

build a bridge into the next age and

say goodbye and leave a

cloud of dust behind


flood the wreckage

build a bridge into the next age and

say goodbye and leave a

cloud of dust behind


spare us both the waste of a conversation

we've had too many times

hope deferred makes the heart sick with desperation

and we've had enough for a lifetime


all I want

want to know

is what you're waiting for


I'll flood the wreckage

build a bridge into the next age and

say goodbye and leave a

cloud of dust behind


flood the wreckage

build a bridge into the next age and

say goodbye and leave a

cloud of dust behind


the rush, the panic

the manic flood of static

not quite sure why it never occurred

it wasn't worth what I was missing

the longer we stay

in this tragic comedy

is just that much longer that it's gonna take

to learn life is meant for living


(good things come to those who wait

they pass by those who hesitate)


I'll flood the wreckage

build a bridge into the next age and

say goodbye and leave a

cloud of dust behind


flood the wreckage

build a bridge into the next age and

say goodbye and leave a

cloud of dust behind


I spend my days at the sundown motel

know my way around night town very well
