[Verse 1]
I'm not mining for gold but insecurity
Fooled by a trick of the light
Are you there
I'm not breaking the mould
I wouldn't fill it
Hold my life in your hands if you dare
[Pre-Chorus]
We wait, weighed down
We let it all escape
We let it go
Let it go
We let it go
We let it go
[Chorus]
We wait in line for nothingness
We wait in line for nothingness
This angel needs some tenderness
This angel needs some tenderness
We wait in line for nothingness
We wait in line for nothingness
This angel needs some tenderness
This angel needs some tenderness, tenderness
[Verse 2]
I'm not here for the show
I'm not buying it
Five steps back from the past if you dare
[Pre-Chorus]
We wait, weighed down
We let it all escape
We let it go
We let it go
We let it go
[Chorus]
We wait in line for nothingness
We wait in line for nothingness
This angel needs some tenderness
This angel needs some tenderness
We wait in line for nothingness
We wait in line for nothingness
This angel needs some tenderness
This angel needs some tenderness, tenderness...
We wait in line for nothingness
We wait in line for nothingness
This angel needs some tenderness
This angel needs some tenderness
We wait in line for nothingness
We wait in line for nothingness
This angel needs some tenderness
This angel needs some tenderness, tenderness

It’s probably my favourite song to play live off the record at the moment. It feels natural to get in the pocket as it’s really bass and drums driven. Watching Tom re-do the vocal at Lynch Mob studio in London, was about as cool a thing as I saw making this record. Everyone in the place was buzzing...
