Lyrics Waiting Like Mad - Ben Watt

Waiting Like Mad

You pull a face as the train pulls away
My heart’s running on but my feet seem to stay
The night’s closing in, but I don’t want to sleep
My heart’s running on, but my love’s running deep
And there’s nothing to see and I’m turning away
But the train’s still in view so I’m turning to stay
Forcing a smile in that lonely place
And cursing because I left my cigarettes in your case
Blood’s running thick and my blood’s running free
But no one gives a damn because there’s no wound to see
I’m hurting inside and I’m hurting the world
My temper’s quick, I feel so sick
Because I’ve lost the pearl my fingers curled around
It’s stupid because I know my anger’s wrong
It’s stupid because I know you won’t be long
But still I miss you more than everything else
I suppose more than anything I’m angry with myself
