2025 Competition Lyrics Entry:

Waiting For Someone by Ron

Lyrics

You can’t love me, I think you better leave
I’ve made excuses for us, you can put that all on me
You’re waiting for someone, it sure as fuck isn’t me (or you’re not waiting for me… G rated)
You’re directing your devotees
You tell them all who you want them to be

My heart wide open,
it was all there for you to take
It seemed so simple to me,
but you love to complicate
I’m not waiting for someone ..
I’ve got better things to do
I gave you more than all I had, it was never enough for you

Perspectives so caustic, television reality
Here I stand accused of being sarcastic,
I don’t see it, far be it from me
Some are waiting for someone, contemplating too long
Some are fading, Deliberating
Love was here… and now it’s gone

There’s always tomorrow, let’s say there’s no harm done
We walked a mysterious road, but then again hasn’t everyone?
Some are waiting for someone, and they’re hating it too
Just know as you remember this –
I gave all my love to you

Still waiting for someone …
not waiting for anyone
Some are waiting for someone..
Are you waiting….am I waiting?
.. we’re all waiting `
