[Verse 1]
I don't wanna wait
I'm lyin' on the floor
Your prisoner of love, mm
I don't wanna change
I'm right behind the door
I'm bloodied, but I'm yours, mm
[Chorus]
I don't wanna wait
But I'm turning to you
I'll stop
Am I breaking you down? Oh, mm
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna break everything
Let me offer my only hope
Like a snowflake dancing down an empty road
I don't wanna change, but I'm running out of time
I got lost in the darkness, thought I'd get somewhere
But I slowly disconnected from my own best friend
[Chorus]
I don't wanna wait
Yeah, when I'm running to you
I'm starving
Am I breaking you down over nothing?
Show a little faith
Yeah, when I'm running to you, baby
I'm starving
Am I breaking you down over nothing?
[Bridge]

Was your helping hand?
All this feeling lonesome
Tiresome struggling
Would you care any longer
If it carries me back to you?
[Chorus]
I don't wanna wait
Yeah, when I'm running to you
I'm starving
Am I breaking you down over nothing?
Show a little faith
Yeah, when I'm running to you
I'm starving
Am I breaking you down over nothing?
I don't wanna wait

[Producer-engineer] Shawn [Everett], for the most part, puts the vocal very front and centre on a lot of songs, very pop-like. I think as you get more confident in your songs it’s okay to have the vocals there. But for this one I was thinking about Radiohead, like it would be cool if we just process...
