Tragedy in Waiting > 11.21.2002

well it's a tragedy in waiting
when there's something on my mind
it's hard enough for me to carry on

well it's a tragedy in waiting
when there's something on my mind
it's hard enough for me to carry on
well call it pleasure if you like
but believe me when i say
the busy eye will learn to change it all

well it's not like i am asking for your mind to open up
well i don't believe that's possible just yet
for a memory is wasted if it's not left in the past
and it's hard enough for me to carry on

have you ever left your suitcase open long after you land
you're scared to file away all your clothes
you see destiny may wait
but there's present day at hand
they forgot to tell me how to end the show

well it's not like i am begging for your mind to fall apart
cause i know that it's eventually to come
well it's a tragedy in waiting
when there's something on my mind
it's hard enough for me to carry on

you want me so badly to give right into you
well i'm afraid that cannot be the case today
you dream of lands and they reside, just me and you
oh my mind, would you leave me be
won't you just leave me for me

love is the only way out of this
it's the only way i can get back into it

well be it afternoon or more beyond the waking of the day
there is always something waiting there for me
i ask again and then again
but just a glimpse into my day
but someone's trying to make it hard for me

could it be that i'm the one who tied my hands behind my back
well it's a tragedy in waiting
when there's something on my mind
it's hard enough for me for love to hold me down

well i don't believe it
well i'll never believe it
well i don't believe it
well i'll never believe you, no
so i'm gone

you want me so badly to give right into you
well i'm afraid that cannot be the case today
you dream of lands and they reside, just me and you
oh my mind, would you leave me be
won't you just leave me for me
for me, for me, for me
