Wait Right Here

The sun feels good sometimes, sometimes it burns
The rat gets shocked sometimes, sometimes it learns
So sun and electricity are sometimes good for you and me
So how come lately all I get are shocks and burns?

My rock broke all the scissors in my way
I challenged Mephistopheles to play
When I let loose my fist
His hand became a laundry list of all my false assumptions
and the rock slide crushed me

Trapped on a blacked-out dance floor
What did I get left here for?
I guess I get it's time to wait right here

Trapped on the shores of a red sea
With a single responsibility
To keep my arms up and just wait right here

Against myself, Exhibit A: the crow
As it flies is how I want to go
I jump the rails, don't follow roads, cause chaos, and that very crow
I have to end up eating, man, I hate that taste

There's no link to a schedule of events
(But when the) time is right He'll open up the fence
Sometimes I think God's waiting for me just to stop convulsing and let Him loosen the straps
so I can run like Hermes

Trapped on a blacked-out dance floor
What did I get left here for?
I guess I get it's time to wait right here

Trapped on the shores of a red sea
With a single responsibility
To keep my arms up and just wait right here
Going somewhere sometimes feels like going nowhere

Trapped on a blacked-out dance floor
What did I get left here for?
I guess I get it's time to wait right here

Trapped on the shores of a red sea
With a single responsibility
To keep my arms up and just wait right here
