Waiting Mode

Lyrics
Intro
Yeah…
Woke up thinkin’ I’d do somethin’ today…
Verse 1
Woke up late, sun comin’ through the blinds
Told myself “man, don’t waste this time”
Got one thing ‘round three o’clock
Ain’t much, but it’s all I got
Sat on the edge of the bed too long
TV on but the sound feels wrong
Whole day’s gone and I ain’t moved
Just waitin’ on somethin’ I gotta do
Pre-Chorus
Keep lookin’ at the clock like it might run fast
But it just keeps draggin’ me back
Chorus
I’ve been stuck in waitin’ mode all week
Watchin’ days get away from me
Got the time, but I can’t use it
Don’t know why I always lose it
Same old couch, same TV glow
Same damn feelin’ I can’t let go
I keep sayin’ I’ll change soon
But I don’t
Verse 2
Wednesday night, I gave it a shot
Picked it up, then I just stopped
Put it down like it weighed a ton
Hell, I don’t know why I run
Thursday hits and it starts to sink
All the things I said I’d be
They don’t look much like me right now
And I don’t know how
Friday night, hear trucks roll by
People laughin’, livin’ life
I could go, I could get out
I just sit here on this couch
Pre-Chorus 2
Every day I swear I’ll try
Every night just slips on by
Chorus
I’ve been stuck in waitin’ mode all week
Watchin’ days get away from me
Got the time, but I can’t use it
Don’t know why I always lose it
Same old couch, same TV glow
Same damn feelin’ I can’t let go
I keep sayin’ I’ll change soon
But I don’t
Bridge
It ain’t that I don’t wanna try
I just don’t know where to start
Feels like somethin’ in my mind
Keeps tearin’ me apart
There’s a man I think I could be
If I’d just get out my way
But I’ve been waitin’ all damn week
And watched him fade away
Outro
Sunday night… same old me
Nothin’ done… just thinkin’
Next week I’ll be different…
Yeah… I always say that
