lyrics
Wait for me.
I said wait, please.
I’ve been a long time running.
I want to put you on a shelf that’s nice and sturdy,
to collect dust in sunbeams until I’m ready.
Wait for me.
I am late to the party.
I’ve been wasting all my breath on a corpse, making memories for nothing.
I’m heavy, but I’m not that far away.
I’m not that far away.
Wait for me.
I said wait, please, what’s the hurry baby?
