Waiting

Haunted by words I wrote so long ago Then the meaning was unclear But now I know I didn't quite understand The words I wrote then But it's clear to see a premonition Spilled from my pen It seems like we're always waiting For something Instead of just living Three simple verses Amateur, I'm aware But back then I was just starting And really didn't care The premonition part Is very easy to see And I think of that statement You'd readily agree Hindsight is 20/20 We'll never know what we've lost til it's gone At this point you probably think I'm saying you're completely wrong I understand why you're hesitant For your soul she practically did kill But just because she broke your heart Doesn't mean that I will It seems like we're always waiting For something Instead of just living
