The Wait

i kinda miss the up all night

i miss that hectic leisure

i kinda miss the essence of nothing

and all that secret pleasure

i kinda miss the to and fro

a special blend of love and hate

i miss the game of the getting

but i will never miss the wait

i kinda miss that empty regret

i miss being that fucking bent

i'm just gonna kiss all that i missed

and all the money i spent (goodbye)

i kinda miss those corners of my mind

i kinda miss that messed up hectic state

i will miss my private access all areas pass

but i will never miss the wait
