[CASSANDRA]
Guess we all are born with parts to play
Some of us are stars and some are just in the way
I know I was meant for glory
But that's never what my story brings

And yet I keep on waiting

When you have the passion and the drive
You expect your moment, center stage, to arrive
I show up with heart a-blazing
Ready to achieve amazing things

But I'm left waiting in the wings

I hear my cue
And yet I'm kept there waiting
Know what to do
And still I stand there waiting
It's always someone else who sings
While I'm left waiting in the wings

And so I keep on keepin' on
My chances come and then I blink and they're gone
Always overlooked unfairly
While pretending that it barely stings
But it stings, yes, it stings!

And I'll shed no tears
I'll only keep on waiting
If no one cheers
Well, I can keep on waiting

Who cares how loud
The silence rings

You'll find me waiting in the wings
