Old Man Jenkins - Wait Lyrics

Sittin' watching the tide
Sinking into the time
Shifting under the eyes
Sittin' watching the tide
A single change of a waveform
Captured on tape
Another call on my cellphone
Rustles my grave
Hold on to the sticks in your pocket
Pictures in a locket
Eyeballs in your sockets and
Wait
Wait
Wait
Licking the edge of the blade
Sticking a stamp on the page
Afternoon rose-colored shade
Sticking a stamp on the page
Planting seeds in the thoughts
I've been chewing for days
Pulling strings to the wings of the
Birds of prey
Hold on to the silence all around us
Pirates on the Sabbath
Pins inside the fabric and
Wait
Wait
Wait
Committing unseen crimes
Reading the tales of time
Finding all the words that rhyme
Committing unseen crimes
Get lost in the sauce
That I made yesterday
Live in fear for the year
When your soil turns grey
Hold on to the sticks in your pocket
Pictures in a locket
Eyeballs in your socket and
Wait
Wait
Wait
