August

There’s tragedy in speaking
when there’s nothing left to say
and I can’t stop the bleeding
and I can’t stop the pain
The August of my dreams
as it fades away
and we struggle as it feeds
it feeds on our memories
Those promises are lost
and the finish line’s been crossed
and I’m standing there
yeah I’m waiting, I’m waiting there for…
And I hope you find your way
I’m so sorry I can’t stay
but it’s not my time
But I’m waiting, I’m waiting there for…
And now you’re gone
(now you’re gone, now you’re gone, now you’ll always be
gone)
So shake it off, our silence cost us all that we’d
made solid ground
The August of my dreams
as it fades away
and we struggle as it feeds
it feeds on our memories
Those promises are lost
and the finish line’s been crossed
and I’m standing there
yeah I’m waiting, I’m waiting there for…
And I hope you find your way
I’m so sorry I can’t stay
but it’s not my time
But I’m waiting, I’m waiting there for…
The August of my dreams
as it fades away
and we struggle as it feeds
and it feeds, as we wait, as we wait
(so wait for me)
Those promises are lost
And the finish line’s been crossed
And I know you’ll find your way
I know that you’ll find me
wait for me
