City And Colour - Waiting... Lyrics






A coma might feel better than this,
attempting to discover where to begin.
You're weighed down, you're full of something.
Of sickness, and desertion.
You're weighed down, you're full of something,
you're underneath it all.

So say goodbye to love,
and hold your head up high.
There's no need to rush
we're all just waiting, waiting to die.

Hoping a better place is all I need,
with moments of innocence and mystery.
Oh, it's the little things you miss.
Like waking up all alone.
Oh, it's the little things you miss,
when you're underneath it all.

So say goodbye to love,
and hold your head up high.
There's no need to rush
we're all just waiting, waiting to die.

All your friends seem like enemies
when you're broken down and empty.
All your friends seem like enemies
when you're broken down and empty.

So say goodbye to love,
and hold your head up high.
There's no need to rush
we're all just waiting, waiting to die.

  5. f.... ....

    When one has made his demands upon the Universal, he must be ready for surprises. Everything may seem to be going wrong, when in reality, it is going right.

  15. j.... c....

    I was stuck in a deep hole, a hole I thought I could not get out. I cried for help, I cried cause no one listened. I began to beat myself up mentally. Breaking my will with fear and beating my chest cause I know I have done so many mistakes. But I can’t stay down in this place anymore. I am ready to get out I am ready to live out my adventures. So I’ll hold my head up high and keep trudging to stay alive.

    j.... c....

    I truly hope youre doing right. I have the same feelings, and its weird to think that we can over come our situation, finally.

    A coma might feel better than this,
    attempting to discover where to begin.
    You're weighed down, you're full of something.
    Of sickness, and desertion.
    You're weighed down, you're full of something,
    you're underneath it all.

    So say goodbye to love,
    and hold your head up high.
    There's no need to rush
    we're all just waiting, waiting to die.

    Hoping a better place is all I need,
    with moments of innocence and mystery.
    Oh, it's the little things you miss.
    Like waking up all alone.
    Oh, it's the little things you miss,
    when you're underneath it all.

    So say goodbye to love,

    There's no need to rush

    All your friends seem like enemies
    when you're broken down and empty.
    All your friends seem like enemies

    So say goodbye to love,

    There's no need to rush

    D.... P....

    D.... P....

    Danilo Paes here for you

  58. J.... W....

    Did any one notice his name?? Dallas = city green = colourcity and colour?

    J.... W....

    I can't believe all this time..I've been a fan and I've never even picked up on this. I am mind blown. and feel incredibly stupid.

    J.... W....

    That's the reason it's called city and colour.

    J.... W....

    When I caught that a couple years back I didn’t was awestruck and started to become curious the of the other obvious things in front of me that I couldn’t see

    J.... W....

    how have i never noticed that lol

  59. j.... w....

    so say goodbye to love... and hold your head up high. damn

    j.... w....

    meh mehson
    Gift

  60. J.... s....

    this song reminds me so much of my ex and my best friend at the same time

    J.... s....

    i hope its not the same person! :|

  61. F.... V....

    one of my top 5 and comes in first place as the most beautiful sad song.

  62. S.... ....

    Dallas Green is an amazing artist. This song is like xanax to my ears. It just calms me and makes me happy happy happy

  63. S.... B....

    I remember when this song came out. I was so in love and winning.
    I think there is a positivity in the loss of love Mr. Green is talking about in this song. Hold your head up high lovely.

    S.... B....

    Lovely. Yeah, I get it. Thank you.

  64. H.... O....

    I can sleep to all of these songs in repeat...

  65. A.... M....

    A lot of people I know say this is super sad music. I feel the complete opposite. This music makes me feel the feeling as you stand back up after falling down. To me that is the most triumphant feeling ever. Hold your head up high.

    A.... M....

    Andrew Mesler SAME

    A.... M....

    you're not alone buddy, everyone tells me the same thing

    A.... M....

    Andrew Mesler I agree when I'm sad. it helps a lot. sometimes it gets me. but other times it brightens my day. like I love beautiful deep music. it's from the heart. And that is what music is

  66. 2.... ....

    first time hearing this my drunken heart loves this

    2.... ....

    drunken heart of emos.....find this to be a great cycling track and one to spark some deeper emo thoughts etc when trying to pen things i cant reach inside

  67. d.... n....

    Ppl connect with the lyrics? Lol wut, I always just found his stuff catchy

    d.... n....

    Um. You sound kind of ignorant. Not everyone has had the same experiences as you. Music is mainly made to connect with others, to show them that they aren't alone. Of course people connect to the lyrics.

    d.... n....

    +Jonathan Alvarez it's just vague melodramatic stuff

    d.... n....

    +Kerry O'Brien apparently not to some people. They connect to it. You wouldn't know everyone's story.

    d.... n....

    +Jonathan Alvarez I always prefer Morrissey's self mocking lyrics, das how u cope,

  68. S.... B....

    *<3<3<3<3<3<3 **4:04**-**4:09*

  69. E.... S....

    Wtf!!!😟😢😢😢

  70. M.... R....

    While I was in Europe for 3 weeks listening to dallas green (aof and cac) made the home sickness way better.

  71. S.... C....

    Love this song. So much.
    CE, hopefully I see you again.

  72. C.... M....

    listen to ALL the rest of Dallas's stuff since Alexisonfire disbanded Ariel, you'll find emotions you still don't know exist

  73. A.... M....

    I've cried too many times to this song goddamnit.

    A.... M....

    once for me, first time i heard it

  74. J.... M....

    There's only supposed to be ONE PERIOD!

  75. A.... E....

    'All your friends seem like enemies when you're broken down and empty'

  76. t.... ....

    Okay sooo..
    Im not sad. My life is fine. Nothing wrong. No one i know is sick. Single and loving it. But this fucking song punches me in the lungs and gets me to cry every time lol wtf is this voodoo

    t.... ....

    +tylersantiago OMG you have a functioning soul...

    t.... ....

    This is emotions

    t.... ....

    @Xzylophonics caption

    t.... ....

    maybe your just feeling the emotions of others who are really going through something when they listen to the song. simple connection to the universe provides us with fdznfjiadjfbiahe

    t.... ....

    Same bro. Its a beautiful song

  77. D.... J....

    I love this song n ima street nigga smh.. good music

    D.... J....

    D.... J....

  78. M.... N....

    I sleep listening to music and this song came up. I woke up with tears in my eyes! I had to listen to it again. I woke up towards the end of the song.

  79. G.... M....

    So many memories with this song <3

  80. K.... E....

    Oh it's the little things you miss...

  81. N.... H....

    seeing him live beat the time i see metallica live what a legend :D

  82. E.... b....

    So say goodbye to love,
    and hold your head up high.
    There's no need to rush
    we're all just waiting, waiting to die.

  83. T.... H....

    Straight repeatable!!

  84. T.... H....

    Straight amazing vocals and background music! Brings me back to the early 2000's!

    T.... H....

    This album came out in '08.. 

    T.... H....

    @isaiah wake pay attention to what she said.

    T.... H....

    '08 is not early 2000's... numb nut

    T.... H....

    Technically it is

    T.... H....

    @isaiah wake LOOK AT WHAT SHE FUCKING SAID. Where did she mention a time when this came out? All she said was that hearing this song takes her back to a certain time in her life. Dumbass.

  85. M.... S....

    this song.

  86. j.... r....

    they are supremely talented

    j.... r....

    @Nik Robinson while Dallas is incredibly talented he's not the only one performing in this song...

  87. J.... D....

    This band is so underrated. 

    J.... D....

    ...how can one be both stupid AND ignorant? To be stupid is to lack mental capacity, whereas ignorance is not knowing something just because you didn't look into it. Clearly you're one of those, hmm.

    J.... D....

    Bananas

    J.... D....

    @N. Roy Singh I'm just going to point out you called that person an idiot when you can't even spell before and you correctly. 😂

    J.... D....

    @N. Roy Singh It's been 5 years now, just curious... Are you still a garbage human?

    J.... D....

    @Edward The Human hey bud long time. I can confirm im still a garbage human. Have a good day :D

  88. A.... S....

    Amazing song. New fav

  89. S.... ....

    Crying because I love this OML :'D

  90. K.... A....

    five dumb people who disliked. They listened to the whole song though i bet..

  91. M.... A....

    now they are 5..but after 5 months, this is great!!!

  92. L.... C....

    this song is one of the bests

  93. T.... ....

    omfy fuck this is beautiful

  94. J.... U....

    The painting on the cover looks like a joel from the last of us.
