Waiting in the Wings Eden Espinosa

[CASSANDRA]
Guess we all are born with parts to play
Some of us are stars and some are just in the way
I know I was meant for glory
But that's never what my story brings

And yet I keep on waiting

When you have the passion and the drive
You expect your moment, center stage, to arrive
I show up with heart a-blazing
Ready to achieve amazing things

But I'm left waiting in the wings

I hear my cue
And yet I'm kept there waiting
Know what to do
And still I stand there waiting
It's always someone else who sings
While I'm left waiting in the wings

And so I keep on keepin' on
My chances come and then I blink and they're gone
Always overlooked unfairly
While pretending that it barely stings
