lyrics

Summer starts as morning peaks
It whispers the dawn
Holy ghosts and saviors speak
Been hurting too long
Darling of the fighting fleet, keep holding on

I keep waiting
Waiting
I keep waiting
Waiting
It’s time to move on

Wake when it’s over
Behold the new day
Still growing older
Heart isn’t the same
Wrapped up in wonder, who cares what they say

I keep waiting
Waiting
I keep waiting
Waiting
It’s time to move on

The time it takes to build an empire
It falls
Even faster than a heart beat
It breaks
You never really loved it at all
The salt of your sweat
Is wearing holes in your clothes
Sending beads to the pavement
Disappears as heat grows
