Pending

[Verse 1]
Thought that I'd be travelling
I thought I'd see my friends
The universe had other plans
To keep me in my pen
"Solitude is bliss" they say
Not every hour, every day
The cars don't drive around no more
The boats rust in St. Kilda port

[Chorus]
So we'll put our plans on hold
As the world turns dark and cold
As winter turns to spring
Our twenties will be pending
I'll wait like a bird
On a broken branch, I'll perch
Just singing about this broken world

[Bridge]
Da-da-da, da-da, da
Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da
Da-da-da, ba-da, da
Da-ra

[Verse 2]
Maybe we're not meant to be
As busy as we were
The universe tells mе to lean in
As I talk to her
She says wе were running round
Like headless chickens on the ground
Now it's time to smell the rose
The one we planted years ago

[Chorus]
So we'll put our plans on hold
As the world turns dark and cold
As winter turns to spring
Our twenties will be pending
I'll wait like a bird
On a broken branch, I'll perch
Just singing about this broken world

[Outro]
Feeling hopeless right now
But this too shall pass
Oh, the sun will come around
