So I've given it up How could this ever seem so simple Waiting for love But now you're the one who's mixing signals You say that you're sorry But you're asking "what are we?" Never enough And I'm thinking that I can solve this riddle another way It's not like we're alright We could be anywhere else tonight Tell me what we're waiting for Are we holding out for something more? Here on the sidelines We're out on our own time There's nothing like a crowded room To make me wanna up and leave with you Under the bright lights Still here on the sidelines Was this ever real? Or was it another empty promise? You think I don't feel? But maybe it's what we have in common You say that you're sorry But we're back where we started How do we heal? I pray I'll be honest with myself another day It's not like we're alright We could be anywhere else tonight Tell me what we're waiting for Are we holding out for something more? Here on the sidelines We're out on our own time There's nothing like a crowded room To make me wanna up and leave with you Under the bright lights Still here on the sidelines It's not like we're alright It's just something we're drawn to Is it worth holding on to? (It's not like we're alright) If we fend for ourselves We could be anywhere else tonight Tell me what we're waiting for Are we holding out for something more? Here on the sidelines We're out on our own time There's nothing like a crowded room To make me wanna up and leave with you Under the bright lights Still here on the sidelines Under the bright lights Still here on the sidelines Under the bright lights Still here on the sidelines
