The Waiting Curse

[Intro]
Waiting in the shadows, caught between hope and hesitation
Echoes of a dream, whispering in silent anticipation

[Verse 1]
Years of longing, my heart a restless traveler
Searching for a purpose, faded in the shadows' cradle
Finally it appears, a shimmering light on the horizon
But fear grips my soul, paralyzing me in silent prison

[Pre-Chorus]
Why do I wait so long, only to freeze when the moment's near?
Is this my curse, to drown in doubt and drown in fear?

[Chorus]
You are here, shining so clear, but I don’t know what to do
Hold me tight, make it right, I’ve been lost chasing shadows too
This longing, this pain, it's all I’ve ever known
But now that I have you, I’m afraid to call you home

[Verse 2]
A future shimmering, yet my mind's a maze of hesitation
Caught in the web of my own insecurities and agitation
I’ve searched across the endless night, for this moment to appear
And now it’s here, I’m frozen, trembling with fear

[Pre-Chorus]
Why do I wait so long, only to hesitate at the dawn?
Is this my curse, to stumble and to mourn?

[Chorus]
You are here, shining so clear, but I don’t know what to do
Hold me tight, make it right, I’ve been lost chasing shadows too
This longing, this pain, it's all I’ve ever known
But now that I have you, I’m afraid to call you home

[Bridge]
So I stand at the crossroads of desire and doubt
Bracing for the leap, fearing what I’m about
But maybe this silence is just a sign
That I need to let go and make you mine

[Outro]
Waiting in the shadows, no longer in despair
If I just reach out, I can find you there
No more hiding, no more doubt, I’ll break free from this curse
Embrace the love I’ve waited for, and make it first
