This Is The Countdown

Are you getting tired?

I think we've gone and lost the fire

But I don't want to fight anymore,

I've had enough of this town

I can see the signs,

and I can read between the lines

But I don't know what we were fighting for,

I'm just trying to break out.

I've been waiting for something,

I've been sitting for too long.

I've been waiting, but oh, tonight,

this one last try goes on and on and on

I've been waiting for something,

I've been sitting for too long.

I've been waiting, but oh, tonight,

this one last try goes on and on and on

You put your nets out,

and still you chose to do without

the only way to catch a butterfly,

was never waiting for the wings, and

The seasons bring change,

and as the seconds fade away,

I still don't know why we were holding on,

But I'm still trying, to break out

I've been waiting for something,

I've been sitting for too long.

I've been waiting, but oh, tonight,

this one last try, goes on and on and on

I've been waiting for something,

I've been sitting for too long.

I've been waiting, but oh, tonight,

this one last try, goes on and on and on

Should've known better than to listen

When the dreams and the words started falling apart

Should've known I would've hit the ground running

Did you think that the night would possess us

Take us over like the rain that's falling down?

Did you notice when the clock stopped running?

Running

Running

Running

This is the countdown

they say your time is running out

you tread to stay above the waterline,

but never taking off the weights that

Keep us stuck here

In the comfort, in the fear

I'll never know what we were fighting for

but I'm still looking to break out

I've been waiting for something,

I've been sitting for too long.

I've been waiting, but oh, tonight,

this one last try, goes on and on and on

I've been waiting for something,

I've been sitting for too long.

I've been waiting, but oh, tonight,

this one last try, goes on and on and on
