Lyrics Everyone’s Waiting - Missy Higgins

Everyone’s Waiting

I know all the lines to say, the part I’m expected to play
But in the reflection I am worlds away
As I put my costume on, eyelashes one by one
Been doing this so long I can tie the knot behind my back
And everyone’s waiting
But it’s getting harder to hear
What my heart is saying
Cos everyone’s waiting
«Just swallow and breathe», she says, «Remember this ain’t for you it’s for
them, and all of those painful lessons you’ve had to learn, you gotta use them
now or never»
'Cos everyone’s waiting
But it’s getting harder to hear
What my heart keeps saying
Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off
When everyone’s waiting
It makes it harder to hear
What my heart keeps saying
Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off
But everyone’s waiting
I hear that answers appear
When you just stand still
But make it all, how do you make it all stop
When everyone’s waiting
Everyone’s waiting
