Verse
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There’s a lot of politics, a lot of cruel
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There’s always that elephant inside the room
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There’s a lot of talking and throwing looks
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
Not all our bruises are noticeable
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
[Verse 2]
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There’s always that happiness as they wanna sell you
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
Look at how they made us look at ourselves
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There are many quiet tears and flawless feeds and
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There’s a lot of drink-it-away at the parties
[Chorus]
F A# D#
And I keep on waiting for time to slow down
F A# D#
And I keep on hoping for love to come around
F A# D# F
And I don’t know how to make sense of the things that I feel
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
[Verse 3]
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There are many waiting rooms, lot of bad news
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
Barely awake as too late comes to soon
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
When the ground beneath you is shifting you stand and
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
What you took for granted runs like sands out your hands
[Chorus]
F A# D#
And all that we wish is for time to slow down
F A# D#
And all that we hope is for love to come around
F A# D# A# F
And try to find ways to make sense of things that we feel move

[Verse 4]
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There are many lonely nights unrequited love
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
So many words that just wasn’t enough
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
There are many walks home to an empty house
A# Dm/A# Gm D#
Waiting for somebody to chase the darkness out
[Chorus]
F A# D#
And I keep on waiting for time to slow down
F A# D#
And I keep on hoping for love to come around
F A# D# A# F A#
And I don’t know how to make sense of the things that I feel
