Dial 9-1... and Wait - The Casting Out, Nathan Gray

Gimme sweat and adrenaline

Gimme something I can believe

This music’s stale, these drinks are weak

Drop down, give it ten

We’ve been falling asleep

Wake up, watch out

Now we’ve got ourself deep

The party died, the mood got cheap

Stale lust, fake heart

Like a hole in the head

White washed, white bread

We’d be better of dead

The feeling’s gone, the passion left

Today it ain’t over till it’s over

But hey

We ain’t running from our fate

So stay

Dig a hole, arrange the flowers

This dying scene has nothing left to say

Dial 9−1…and wait

Push, pop, talk, shop

Keep it pretty and sweet

Stand still, no frills

Where the hell have I been

And why’s everyone look like a junky

(Sit down, shut up)

Ya look bored, unsure, so clever indeed

No game, so tame, I got places to be

While you’re starring at your feet

Today it ain’t over till it’s over

But hey

We ain’t running from our fate

So stay

Dig a hole, arrange the flowers

This dying scene has nothing left to say

Dial 9−1…and wait

Dial 9−1…and wait

Tonight we fight for something more

Then what we lost

The ambulance outside the house

The fire’s dead so shut your mouth

And let it all come crashing down

Today it ain’t over till it’s over

But hey

We ain’t running from our fate

So stay

Dig a hole, arrange the flowers

This dying scene has nothing left to say

So dial 9−1…and wait

Dial 9−1…and wait
