The Wait Was Worth It

(Verse 1)
I’ve been counting down the days, tracing circles in my mind
Every preview, every whisper got me caught in the grind
Got the vinyl on preorder, got the tracklist memorized
But the wait is a slow burn, and I’m barely alive
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, the night moves so still,
Time plays a cruel game
I can feel it in the air,
But I just can’t press play
(Chorus)
Can’t wait, can’t breathe, it’s pulling me in
Like a tide, like a fever, like a song in my skin
Let it crash, let it cut, let it take me apart
Every note, every word sinking deep in my heart
(Verse 2)
Then the clock strikes twelve, and the world fades away
With a single chord ringing like the start of a fate
First line, first echo, and I know in my bones
This is what I’ve been needing—this is home
(Pre-Chorus)
Oh, the weight of the wait
Now it’s lifting like smoke
Every verse, every chorus,
A promise that spoke
(Chorus)
Can’t wait, can’t breathe, it’s pulling me in
Like a tide, like a fever, like a song in my skin
Let it crash, let it cut, let it take me apart
Every note, every word sinking deep in my heart
(Long Breakdown)
(Bridge)
Rewind, repeat, I’m caught in the sound
Every melody’s haunting, every rhythm is loud
It was worth every second, every moment I craved
Now I’m lost in the music I’ve been dying to save
(Outro)
So next time I’m waiting, lost in the ache
I’ll remember this feeling, the way that it shakes
A masterpiece takes patience—yeah, I finally see
But now that it’s here, it’s a part of me
