Die Waiting Lyrics

[Intro]
When the sky fades out and the roads all end
I'm gonna wait on you, gonna wait on you
When the money runs out and the walls close in
I'm gonna wait on you, gonna wait on you

[Chorus]
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you

[Verse 1]
Coming off the feeling
Got my body reeling
Really coming off the ceiling
All my memories got me kneeling
Almost got a real thing
Almost got a new leaf
Darker than you ever knew it
Something that you're going through it, oh, yeah

[Chorus]
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you
[Bridge]
Yeah, oh, yeah, oh

[Refrain]
When the sky fades out and the roads all end
I'm gonna wait on you, gonna wait on you
When the money runs out and the walls close in
I'm gonna wait on you

[Verse 2]
I can't understand why I've waited for so long
Just to walk out of the door, see the world moving on
And I lay down in the sun with the moonlight in my eyes
If it takes a lifetime, then you know I got time, oh, yeah

[Chorus]
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you
I don't care what I have to do
Know that I'm gonna wait on you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Calling back to Beck’s days of bass-heavy folk-ternative, “Die Waiting” sounds of desperation showing itself through dedication.

Sky Ferreira is featured subtly on backup vocals.
