Waiting

trembling movements of his body
smoking all day, all day long
civilisation he doesn't like it
but the strength to fight has gone
then he's talking of the future
of a better nicer world
and his eyes begin to glitter
I can't believe he doesn't move

he's waiting for a miracle
I see him waiting for so long
he's dreaming of a miracle
and it never ever comes

he's falling deeper, deeper, deeper
and he doesn't see the truth
he thinks one day it will be better
I know one day it will be too late
cause he waited much too long
and he doesn't want to wake up
cause his strength to fight is gone
and his hope is much too strong
