My next song is about standing pat instead of making a move. Whether it be a job, a relationship, or an opportunity to chase a dream, sometimes the little voices in our heads decide to step in and hold us back. Mentally, we are immature. It takes a lot to break the chains of complacency and stillness to lead an active and happy life. While others can break them easily, some need more than a hand or a pep talk. We will make mistakes along the way, and we cannot let them get in our way to make a brighter future.
All this waiting can make you crazy
Can make the sunlight a little hazy
The time passing can make you shudder
Give you moments you start to wonder
Do you still wonder?
‘Cause I wonder, too
All this talking can hypnotize you
But it could never satisfy you
Without the courage, without the action
There can be no chain reaction
Where's your reaction?
'Cause I'm standing here
Come on, darling
What are you waiting for?
All this thinking can leave you breathless
Grasp your spirit, twist it senseless
We're not specters, we are human
Life is fleeting and hearts are blooming
Is your heart blooming?
'Cause mine is open wide
Is your heart open?
Mine is open wide

Interesting lyrics. Am in a waiting position so the title got my attention. In my case, I can be impulsive so some waiting is a good thing. You question yourself either way. Nice write!
