Waiting

"Waiting" is about the expectations that often come with romantic interaction. I wrote it for someone I liked, but did not quite want to sleep with.

Songs repeat 

And we’re tapping feet

Like we’re waiting for someplace to go.

Comfortable silence is a luxury 

Only the stationery know.

Always an expectation, 

Always some place to go.

But I am the reality;

I think, and I feel, 

And goddamnit, I’m real,

And I think that I like standing still.
