Lyrics

[Intro 1]
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |

[Intro 2]
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |

[Pre-Verse]
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |

[Verse 1]
E5               F5
Motives changing,
E5
Day to day
F5    E5             F5
  The fire increases,
E5
Masks decay
F5  E5                F5
  I look at the river,
      E5
White foam floats down
F5    E5              F5
  The body's poisoned,
E5              F5
Got to sit tight

[Chorus]
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait

[Pre-Verse]
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |
| E5 - | - F5 | E5 - | - F5 |

[Verse 2]
E5             F5
After wakening,
E5
Silence grows
F5    E5
  The screams subside,
F5   E5
  Distortion shows
F5 E5             F5
   Mutant thoughts  of
E5
Bad mouthed news
F5         E5
  Is just another birth
F5      E5          F5
  Of distorted views

[Chorus]
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
A5        B5 C5 F5
  The wait
