It seems the line’s just about to fall
About the time when the bridges burn
That solid voice sounds a little small
Nowhere to run now it’s time to learn
Not just a kid but not quite a man now
It’s hard to sit while they read your rights
They say we’re trying to understand you
Do they remember what it’s like?
Heading home to face the revolution
You’re overthrown and burning up inside
There’ll come a time when you can live your freedom but
All you can do now is wait, wait, wait.
All you can do is wait, wait, wait...
The line was tripped when the wires were crossed
No more a contest or a game
No cushion left now to break the fall
The price of privilege has got its pain
Heading home to face the revolution
You’re overthrown and burning up inside
There’ll come a time when you can live your freedom but
All you can do now is wait, wait, wait,
All you can do is wait, wait, wait
So take a seat warm by the hearth
Fire will melt the thaw
You’re tapping in to your own true voice
While the reckoning pays a call
Yeah, take a seat, warm by the hearth
Fire will melt the thaw
Your fragile heart melts in to mine
While the reckoning pays a call
And the reckoning pays a call to us all
