[Verse 1]
Lost my shape trying to act casual
Can't stop, I might end up in the hospital
Changing my shape, I feel like an accident
They're back to explain their experience
[Chorus 1]
Isn't it weird? Looks too obscure to me
Wasting away, that was the policy
[Verse 2]
I'm ready to leave, I push the fact in front of me
Facts lost, facts are never what they seem to be
There's nothing there, no information left of any kind
Lifting my head, lo-lo-looking for danger signs
[Chorus 2]
There was a line, there was a formula
Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us
There was a line, there was a formula
Sharp as a knife, facts cut a hole in us
[Bridge]
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
[Chorus 3]
The feeling returns whenever we close our eyes
Lifting my head, looking around inside
[Verse 3]
The island of doubt, it's like a taste of medicine
Working by hindsight, got the message from the oxygen
M-m-making a list, find the cost of opportunity
Doing it right, facts are useful in emergencies
[Chorus 3]
The feeling returns, whenever we close our eyes
Lifting my head, looking around inside
[Verse 4]
Facts are simple and facts are straight
Facts are lazy and facts are lame
Facts don't come with points of view
Facts don't do what I want them to
Facts just twist the truth around
Facts are living turned inside out
Facts are getting the best of them
Facts are nothing on the face of men
[Outro]
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
I-I-I'm still waiting
