[Verse 1]:
Crooked smile on my face now
Head in my hands
Eyes bloodshot yeah
Against time we must race now
This could be the end
Is that what they say?

[Chorus]:
The waiting game
Has me in chains
I wonder if you'll make it out alive tonight
The waiting game
Has me in chains
I wonder if I'll see you on the other side

[Verse 2:]
Hanging on by a thread now
I want to believe [but] mind's wondering
All the shit just make sense
A man from a dream
If you hear was calling

[Chorus 2x]:
The waiting game
Has me in chains
I wonder if you'll make it out alive tonight
The waiting game
Has me in chains
I wonder if I'll see you on the other side

[Bridge 2x:]
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
We'll be alright
