Waiting For The End Lyrics and Chords
Album: A Thousand Suns
E
This is not the end,
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot,
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
And though the words sound steady,
Something empty’s within them
Verse 1
…………E
We say yeah,
With fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something
That’s invisible there
‘Cause we’re living at the mercy
Of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it,
Forget it, let it all disappear
E
Waiting for the end to come
……………………A
Wishing I had strength to stand
………………………F#m
This is not what I had planned
…………………….E B
It’s out of my control
E
Flying at the speed of light
………………………………….A
Thoughts were spinning in my head
…………………………….F#m
So many things were left unsaid
……………………E B
It’s hard to let you go …
C#m A
Oh .. I know what it takes to move on
C#m A
Oh .. I know how it feels to lie
E
… All I want to do is
B
Trade this life for something new
C#m A E
Holding on to what I haven’t got
Verse 2
E
Sitting in an empty room
…………………A
Trying to forget the past
……………………E
This was never meant to last
………………E B
I wish it wasn’t so …
C#m A
Oh .. I know what it takes to move on
C#m A
Oh .. I know how it feels to lie
E
… All I want to do is
B
Trade this life for something new
C#m A E
Holding on to what I haven’t got
Yeah yeah
What was left
When that fire was gone?
I thought it felt right,
But that right was wrong
All caught up in the
Eye of the storm
And trying to figure out
What it’s like moving on
And I don’t even know
What kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving
And my mind went dead
So, I’m picking up the pieces now,
Where to begin
The hardest part of ending
Is starting again
Music:
All I want to do is
Trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got
This is not the end,
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot,
Rocking every revision
(I’m holding on to
What I haven’t got)
We say yeah,
With fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something
That’s invisible there
(Holding on to
What I haven’t got)
