the wait

After awakening, The silence grows
The screams subside, Distortion shows

a sudden realisation, an afterthought almost, sends me reeling

Mutant thoughts, Of bad mouthed news
Just another birth, Of distorted views

worst-case scenarios can't help but manifest in my head

The wait, The wait
The wait, The wait

time stands still, the night doesn't pass and the day doesn't dawn

'The Wait' - Metallica
