[Verse 1]
Growing fond of the omen
Growing fond of the yellow sky
Growing fond of the moment
Growing fond of the smell of blood

[Pre-Chorus]
Are you new in the city?
Haven't you heard the plague's coming around?
There was one and then many
Riding dragons into town

[Chorus]
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
Everyone you ever knew is skipping town
While you're waiting for your lover to come around

[Verse 2]
Bowing down to the new lord
Bowing down to his wretched son
Pledging now to be frugal
Plеdging now to never understand

[Pre-Chorus]
Arе you new in the city?
Haven't you heard the plague's coming around?
There was one and then many
Riding dragons into town
[Chorus]
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
Everyone you ever knew is skipping town
While you're waiting for your lover to come around

[Bridge]
Send me a message from the desert
It's an oasis, go read the data
All of the masses have departed
What was the market's gone

[Chorus]
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
While you're waiting for your lover to come around
Everyone you ever knew is skipping town
While you're waiting for your lover to come around

[Outro]
I'm still waiting
For my sake, we made it
I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting
For my sake, we made it
I'm still waiting
