[Verse 1]
Well, I thought I saw the butcher straightening the sheets
When I noticed you had blood streaked across your cheek
You thought you heard me crying but it ain't what it seems
I was walking out your red room laughing up my sleeve
[Chorus]
I've, I've been waiting so long (So long)
Out under your dirty, cold sun
[Verse 2]
Your fist was filled with fire, your mouth it spilled black smoke
I would've called it magic but it was just a hoax
I was taken from the pages of your burning midnight book
In the mirror, you are righteous, yeah, but I never had a look
[Chorus]
I've, I've been waiting so long (So long)
Out under your dirty, cold sun
[Bridge]
Yeah, forgot the name, remembered the wound
Oh, it came on so quick and faded so soon
Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
Can you see the fire burning inside of me?
Well, I thought I saw the butcher straightening the sheets
When I noticed you had blood streaked across your cheek
You thought you heard me crying but it ain't what it seems
I was walking out your red room laughing up my sleeve
[Chorus]
I've, I've been waiting so long (So long)
Out under your dirty, cold sun
[Verse 2]
Your fist was filled with fire, your mouth it spilled black smoke
I would've called it magic but it was just a hoax
I was taken from the pages of your burning midnight book
In the mirror, you are righteous, yeah, but I never had a look
[Chorus]
I've, I've been waiting so long (So long)
Out under your dirty, cold sun
[Bridge]
Yeah, forgot the name, remembered the wound
Oh, it came on so quick and faded so soon
Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
Can you see the fire burning inside of me?
