Recorded on SM58 live, one take.
All lyrics were improvised.
Vocals were doubled and one guitar overdubbed.

WATING FOR IT TO END:
Go pack your things up,
you're gonna be late.
The hardest part's over,
there'll be no more waiting.
Oh, I realize now it's all over.
You're looking pretty,
and it's such a shame,
we had to go through this,
shit once again.
Oh, I realize now it's all over.
We had a real good time,
but now it's all over,
and you are just crying.
I'm looking filthy,
my soul's feeling wet,
Now it's all over,
what's your name, I forget?
I could simplify the answers,
I could tell you the lies,
or open up the door to see the world you despise,
and I've cut out all the cigarettes,
my drinking subsides,
but Johnny Walker Black has got me tied up inside.
Pack up your things,
get ready to go,
you're gonna be late,
miss your train and your slow ride down,
I know you're alive, but I just can't watch you go.
