I've Been Waiting for This
That time I shot that squirrel up in that tree I felt so sad. His body limp and lifeless as I looked up at my Dad. This gun is the best enemy, worst friend that I've had. What shall I do? Ooh ooh ooh.
I swear I've lived a lot of lives, I've seen most if not all. But nothing can prepare you for the coldness of the fall. And it's hard to look behind you when you're backs up against a wall. What can you do? Ooh ooh ooh.
(Guess I gotta prove it to you)
I, I was young now it's old. I've been waiting for this. I, I was young now it's old. I've been waiting for this. All I know is I hope as I'm ready to die and I live while I cry. I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I've been waiting for this. I've been waiting for this.
This wedding ring is older than most girls on this floor. And I was married at their age not with this ring but before. How the hell do you know what love is when you're already divorced at 22? Ooh ooh ooh.
I, I was young now it's old. I've been waiting for this. I, I was young now it's old. I've been waiting for this. All I know is I hope as I'm ready to die and I live while I cry. I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I've been waiting for this. I've been waiting for this. I've been waiting for this.
Now the drinks are getting harder and my mind is gettin' soft. In the car, yeah, I would start her if I learned to shut it off. But the drive keeps me alive with just one foot inside the coffin instead of two. Ooh ooh ooh.
(Brother I've been waiting for this day)
I, I was young now it's old. I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I was young now I'm old. I've been waiting for this. All I know is I hope as I'm ready to die and I live while I cry. I've been waiting for this. Hey, 'cause I've been waiting for this. 'Cause I've been waiting for this. 'Cause I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I've been waiting for this. I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I've been waiting for this. Yeah, I've been waiting for this.
