I've Been Waiting for Tomorrow (All of My Life) - The The

I’m hiding in the corner

Of an overgrown garden

Covering my body in leaves

And trying not to breath

All my childhood dreams

Are bursting at the seams

And dangling around my knees

I’ve been deformed by emotional scars

And the cancer of love has eaten out my heart

I’ve been stripped bare and nobody cares

And all the people I looked up to are no longer there

All desires have been denied to put me in this state of mind

Another year older and what have I done

My aspirations have shrivelled in the sun

I’m crippled by guilt, blinded by science

I’ve been waiting for tomorrow all of my life

All desires have been denied

To put me in this state of mind

Another year older and what have I done

My aspirations have shriveled in the sun

I’m crippled by guilt, blinded by science

I’ve been waiting for tomorrow all of my life

I’ve been filled with useless information

Spewed out by papers and radio stations

I’ve been hounded by fair-weather friends

Sowing the seeds for my discontent

Life is like a sewer

And I’m trying to wade thru her

I threw in my money and made my wish

But sleeping boys catch no fish

All desires have been denied to put me in this state of mind

Another year older and what have I done

My aspirations have shriveled in the sun

I’m crippled by guilt

Blinded by science

I’ve been waiting for tomorrow all of my life

All my childhood dreams

Are dangling around my knees

My mind has been polluted

And my energy diluted

My mind has been polluted

And my energy diluted

My mind has been polluted

And my energy diluted

My mind has been polluted

And my energy diluted

My mind has been polluted

And my energy diluted

My mind has been polluted

And my energy diluted
