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

(Breakdown Solo)
