Standing around, everybody’s standing around
Waiting for the big show to start, waiting for the big show to start
Counting the days, everybody’s counting the days
Til they get to board the first flight out,
til they get to board the first flight out
Look at this old world, they want to end it
But there’s a new world, and I want to be in it
So I’m not watching the sky anymore
I’m not waving good-bye anymore
I’m not planning to fly anymore
When the day comes, you’ll find me here
Biding their time, everybody’s biding their time
Hoping that they don’t get left behind, hoping that they don’t get left behind
Saving themselves, everybody’s saving themselves
Maybe fit a few more in the boat, try to fit a few more in the boat
Banking on rumors and superstitions
Rewrote the ending and lost the mission
