imogen heap plays "wait it out"
Where do we go from here?
How do we carry on?
I can't get beyond the questions
Clambering for the scraps
in the shatter of us, collapsed
It cuts me with every could have been
Pain on pain on play, repeating
With the backup, makeshift life in waiting
Everybody says
time heals everything
What of the wretched hollow?
The endless in between?
Are we just going to wait it out?
There is nothing to see here now
Turning the sign around
We're closed to the Earth 'til further notice
A crumbling cliche case
crumpled and puffy faced
caught dead in the stare of a thousand miles
All I want, only one street level miracle
I'll be an out and out born again
from none more cynical
Everybody says
that time heals everything
But what of the wretched hollow?
The endless in between?
Are we just going to wait it out?
And sit here cold?
We will be long gone by then
In lackluster
In dust we lay around old magazines
Fluorescent lighting sets the scene
for all we could and should be being
in the one life that we've got
Everybody says
time heals everything
And what of the wretched hollow?
The endless in between?
Are we just going to wait it out?
Just going to sweat it out?
Just going to sweat it out?
Wait it out
(Applause)
