Waiting For The Joy

The Staves The Staves

I’ve been asleep for a week
And I don’t know where I’ve been
I know I should, if I could, I’d be good
And I’d eat my greens

Up all night
Locking ourselves inside

Everybody’s singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come
But it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing
I'm not quite doing it right
Shut the front door
Tell me what to do and what to do it for
Everybody’s singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come
But it never does

Sitting on notions in oceans of time
And my hair got long
Meant to reply to your message but now
I don’t feel too strong

Sink like a stone
Sorry I don’t answer the phone

Everybody’s singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come
But it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing
I'm not quite doing it right
Shut the front door
Tell me what to do and what to do it for
Everybody’s singing all the songs I love

Gimme one more
One two three four
Did it go, has it gone away
Did it go, is there nothing left to say

Thinking about getting out
There’s a drought
And I need a drink

Everybody’s singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come
But it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing
I'm not quite doing it right

All the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come
But it never does
I'm pushing buttons keeping on the lights
Even doing nothing
I'm not quite doing it right
Shut the front door
Tell me what to do and what to do it for
Everybody’s singing all the songs I love
Waiting for the joy to come
But it never does
