Waiting For The Lights To Change Lyrics


Phantom Planet Waiting For The Lights To Change

[Verse 1]
I'm tired of this empty life
I've lived it a thousand times
Underneath the city lights
Walking a grid

Feeling so far away
Not knowing if I should stay
Thinking of the world we knew
When we were kids

[Chorus]
Let's get out of here
The words you said still echo in my mind
Waiting for the lights to change
We're still waiting for the lights to change

[Verse 2]
It's starting to rain again
Flooding my brain again
When you opened your door for me
But I could not come in

I'm feeling so turned around
In a wash of uncertain sounds
Thinking all this space we shared
Feels like it's out of bounds

[Chorus]
Babe, your home was here
The words you said still echo in my mind
Waiting for the lights to change
We're still waiting for the lights to change

[Bridge]
I'm at this intersection on the wrong side of the city
Standing on a corner as the rain begins to fall
As we come apart across a strong tide of “whatever”
Waiting for the lights to change
Waiting for the lights to change
We're still waiting for the lights to change

[Chorus]
Let's get out of here
The words you said still echo in my mind
Waiting for the lights to change
I'm still waiting for the lights to change
Still waiting for the lights to change
Waiting for the lights to change

[Outro]
Waiting on a red light, red light
Waiting for a green light, green light
Waiting for the green light, green light
Waiting on the red light, red light

Waiting on a red light, red light
Waiting for a green light, green light
Waiting for the green light, green light
Waiting on the red light, red light

Waiting on a red light, red light
Waiting for a green light, green light
Waiting for the green light, green light
Waiting on the red light, red light

Waiting on a red light, red light
Waiting for a green light, green light
Waiting for the green light, green light
Waiting on the red light, red light, red light
