Perspectives - Marking Time

i have been waiting for so long, waiting for someone to call.
telling me, where i should be, telling me, everything.
i was, never was, a religious man.
i was, i am, losing who i am.

how long can i beg for direction?
ive been on my knees, in front of this jury, for too long, objection.
bring your mallet down and judge,
i have never been one to hold a grudge.
but how can i forget, how i feel.
i need someone to tell me what is real.

how long have i been waiting?

how long have i been waiting, for the patience i am chasing.
the rainbow has, lost its glow, im still waiting for someone, to show me.
the potential.

i can see my shadows grin, every time i fall and cant win.
i cant win.

like a man on the edge,
about to take his life, step off the ledge,
all i need is for someone to tell me,
what my purpose is, that the future isnt bleak.
a reassuring hand is all i seek.

i have been waiting for so long, waiting for someone to call.
telling me where i should be, telling me everything.
i am losing who am.
i am losing who am.
