This song is about my brother who was stabbed about a year ago. It’s just about what was going through my head when it happened and after it happened.
Chorus
Wait indoors
, Slept to waste the time,
Until I hear the sound,
Of your footsteps climbing,
Up the porch as it rains,
Trembling voices propogate these rooms,
I keep my eyes closed and listen to the...
Verse 1
I been awake like 3 hours or somethin, woke up when I thought I heard your footsteps up the stairs comin closer, but thats just false hopin cause you ain't been home in a couple of days and still nothin
No news yet, the police had told it all, the knife stuck where it hurt and you're no longer standin tall, what makes it even worse is that I can't give you a call, to see if you're treated right at the hospital where you are
I wait, sittin in your room, the only company I have is the echoes startin to boom, killin my insides while reassurin the doom, I keep starin at this door, hopin it opens soon
Sayin God, I've talked to you before, you never answered, I guess I get it, what do I need, my life is pampered, I take back all I've ever asked and ask you this, save my brother, cause if he leaves I call it quits
Chorus
Wait indoors
, Slept to waste the time,
Until I hear the sound,
Of your footsteps climbing,
Up the porch as it rains,
Trembling voices propogate these rooms,
I keep my eyes closed and listen to the...
Verse 2
I hate how things change so quickly, last week you were right here killin these zombies with me, then you're in a strange bed, with a tube stuck in your rib cage, do you finally see that it all was a stupid mistake
Whatever, I won't make you dwell in the past, whats done is already done, at least you're home at last, at least I get to hug you, see your smile, and hear you laugh, I almost can't believe it, my big brother is back
And here to stay, I'll chain you to a chair, to make sure that you never go back in that evil world out there, people hurtin people, I swear you won't be the victim, almost lost you once, if I see that dude, I'll kill him
Violence ain't the answer, don't mean its not an idea, if I knew where his house was, I'd take that nuke from north korea, and drop it on his roof and then probably laugh about it, I'm not feelin like myself, just wait for me to snap out of it, whoa
Chorus
Wait indoors
, Slept to waste the time,
Until I hear the sound,
Of your footsteps climbing,
Up the porch as it rains,
Trembling voices propogate these rooms,
I keep my eyes closed and listen to the...
Outro: I'm still here, I'll always be here, waiting for you, I love you bro
