Charlie Cozz - Waiting For A Change Lyrics

Better lock your doors and hold your children tight
Cause you don't wanna see the clock strike midnight
No you don't want it, I don't want it, we don't want it
Tell me why then do you flaunt it in our faces

Threatening to turn a paradise to desolation
You said it once, you said it twice
So tell me why you keep on waving Armageddon
Like a ticket to a paid vacation

You hold a double-sided blade, it's cutting through your veins
Leave them all afraid in the shadow of a golden age
We got artificial brains, electric planes and bullet trains
We got the choice to save a people or eradicate them

Willing to sacrifice a billion, thank you for that demonstration
You disrupt the Earth's rotation, we ain't even safe in space
Maybe there was life on Mars, but they got blown to heaven's gate
Open your eyes for heaven's sake, modern times, medieval ways

In a twist you're on the ropes, so long you're forming an abrasion
Heads bow, the lights go down
The people put their faith in a miracle
What now, the time's getting loud

It's easier to claim you don't hear at all
No need to fear tomorrow
When we still ain't through today
There's always time to borrow

When you're waiting for a change
We make love with hypocrisy, the threat exceeds containment
So disregard the global scene and feed the mad exchanges
Let's speak in tongues and muffled speech, let's terrorize with statements

Slaughter with hysteria and bathe with gasoline
Soon the carbon in the atmosphere will bar us from the future
The wound was never really clean, just covered up with sutures
Let's kick the can right down the road, then let it go like Hoover

Feed the new depression, f*ck the lessons, sink the cue first
Heads bow, the lights go down
The people put their faith in a miracle
What now, the time's getting loud

It's easier to claim you don't hear at all
No need to fear tomorrow
When we still ain't through today
There's always time to borrow

When you're waiting for a change
Now ain't it so frustrating love
Cause it don't need to be this rough
I'm awake, ain't that realization strange

But don't let the sun stumble out of range love
Cause I see it in your face love
It always seems so far away when you're waiting for a change
So grab a hold before it fades
