Ought – Waiting lyrics
I don’t even know what to say
I don’t even know what to say
What, where, when, and why and how
Did you get the notion now
That year after year, we put a quarter in the wall
What’s that now? We fell in line, and

How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?

I don’t even know what to call it anymore
I don’t even know what to call it anymore
We don’t even know what to call it anymore
We don’t even know what to call it anymore

Year after year, we sit in the shade
Say, “Nothing’s fine, nothing’s alright
What’s that now?”
We’re all underneath you!

How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
What’s that now? What’s the difference now?

Whatever it was, you’re born and you’re holy now
Whatever it was, you’re born and you’re holy now
Whatever it was, looks like a waiting room
Whatever it was, we fell in line and

How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
Take my hand and hold me now, what’s that now? What’s the difference now?

Standing in the street
We fell in line and
How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
How long you been waiting?
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
What a story, what a story, watching all our lives, watching all our lives

Walking in the street, walking in the street
Standing in the street, drenched to the bone
I threw out my wallet, I threw out my phone
What’s that now? What’s the difference now?

How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
How long I been waiting?
I am ashamed
I am ashamed
I am ashamed

Walking in the street, what’s the difference now?
