B.Bear - The Day You Wait Forever Lyrics

They say life is freedom
But they came to waste my time
Overstate the obvious
While demanding all my dimes
When you're searching for the bottom
I've already left the port
And the day you wait forever
Is the day I'll reach the shore

I've been working for a pocket
Filled with only empty hands
Trying to live the fantasy
Of owning homes and land
Momma said to try your hardest
Now my body's old and sore
So the day you wait forever
Is the day they'll raise my score

Reminisce about the days we used to have
While we waited for our turn up in the sun
All our lives were spent just trying to get by
Now that time is gone
Now it's time to run

To the corner for some liquor
Or a quicker path away
Hide inside a bottle
As your life just falls away
And you might make it till morning
But then you'll face the sun
For the day you wait forever
Is the day your light is gone

10:30 moves to midnight
And the hours move along
You'll be out there waiting
For a light that never comes
When I'm walking through your doorway
To the life I've always known
On the day you wait forever
I ain't ever coming home
