Oh God, the time I waste
Staring out into this empty space
Waiting up for sleep to end the day
'Cause every time I close my eyes
I see myself beside a busy highway

I count the headlights passing by
But never seem to catch the driver's eye
Guess no one sees I need a ride
Everyone is going home
And when the tail lights fade
I'm all alone

Waiting for the daylight
But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting for the sunlight

Silence is no friend of mine
She frightens me with sounds I never find
Then laughs behind my back
But I can break her when I call
Silence echoes off the wall

But I keep looking for the daylight
And it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm longing for the daylight

But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting for the daylight

And I will wait as long as it takes
For me to fall
And when I fall, I'll sleep through the day
Sleep my life away
My whole life away

I count the headlights passing by
But never seem to catch the driver's eye
No one sees I need a ride
Everyone is going home
And when the tail lights fade
I'm all alone

Waiting for the daylight
But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting for the sunlight

But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting for the sunlight

But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting for the sunlight

But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting for the sunlight

But it's always night
Always night
Always night
I'm waiting
