Caught out in the rain
I haven’t slept in days
Staring into space
As I miss another train
I feel like I’ve become
A hollow empty song
A beat without a drum
That’s going on and on
I’m tired of living for the game
I’ll wait forever if I stay
Trapped in broken yesterdays
In the end we will be who we’ve chosen
Take the lens move the light to soft focus
Across the empty track
You take a photograph
As I hear the shutter snap
I’m done with looking back
As I sit and wait
The edges change their shape
Though the clouds remain
I’m making a new frame
I’m tired of living for the game
I’ll wait forever if I stay
Trapped in broken yesterdays
In the end we will be who we’ve chosen
Take the lens move the light to soft focus
Soft focus
Blur the edges of it
Soft focus
Put yourself inside it
Soft focus
Cut the colours of yourself
I’m tired of living for the game
I’ll wait forever if I stay
Trapped in broken yesterdays
In the end we will be who we’ve chosen
Take the lens move the light to soft focus
