[Verse 1: Rob Swire]
You arrive in the rising sun
The hidden passenger that I've been taking
Close your eyes, let's forget again
As you drag me down, I will take you in
[Pre-Drop: Rob Swire]
What are you waiting for?
Just surrender here tonight
What are you waiting for
As we go towards the light?
[Build-Up: Rob Swire]
When everything is said and done
Still looking for answers, if only one
Turn my back, the urge has gone
Left with no reason, we come undone
[Drop]
[Verse 2: Rob Swire]
I am caught in your slow release
Seems like your traveler is eager to move me
My reflection will slowly fade
To another time until my head escapes
[Pre-Drop: Rob Swire]
What are you waiting for?
Just surrender here tonight
What are you waiting for
As we go towards the light?
[Build-Up: Rob Swire]
When everything is said and done
Still looking for answers, if only one
Turn my back, the urge has gone
Left with no reason, we come undone
[Drop]
[Outro: Rob Swire]
Woah-oh-oh, woah
Woah-oh-oh, woah
