[Verse 1]
People look and people talk to me, it's the same
And they're electric and they're golden
But they're playing a game
Sitting in a stone throne
A crack in their eyes
I'm colored red and white, you're screaming Jesus in vain
I'm walking in a bed of roses, tripping onto a plane
Sitting in a stone throne
You know I'm alright

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't wait for me now
You won't wait for me now
You wanna cry, babe?
What makes you so sure?
What fun is life, babe, unless it's too short?

[Chorus]
I can't listen to you this time
But candy, candy, don't cry
You know you're alright
Don't wait for me now, girl, I swear to God

[Verse 2]
People look and people talk to me, it's the same
And they're electric and they're golden
But they're playing a game
Sitting in a stone throne
A crack in their eyes
I'm colored red and white, you're screaming Jesus in vain
I'm walking in a bed of roses, tripping onto a plane
Sitting in a stone throne
You know I'm alright

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't wait for me now
You won't wait for me now
You wanna cry, babe?
What makes you so sure?
What fun is life, babe, unless it's too short?

[Chorus]
I can't listen to you this time
But candy, candy, don't cry
You know you're alright
Don't wait for me now, girl, I swear to God
