Bad Timing

Who's waiting for her like she's waiting for him
Who's tracking the storm she's lost in
The stars are bright
The night is black and clear
The clowns are all asleep, the strongman is in tears
Who has a heart of glass and steel
Who else has this secret all too ready to reveal

Who else won't believe in honor among thieves
Don't trust the friends you know you'll see in hell
Sometimes the wait is trial by ordeal
Sometimes the timing's wrong
Sometimes she's not that strong
What do we miss when we cut to the chase
I'm surrounded by hope but I kneel down to kiss the dirt

A very few dreams can be replaced
And down on my knees my vision is blurred but my head is clear
Who still fans the flames but dropped out of the race
The choices that we made have left a bitter taste

Who else is blinded by the pressures of regret
The gift of hate it warmed my heart for ten thousand days
Revenge has come and gone and come and gone
The sun breaks through the clouds but something's wrong
Who's waiting for her like she's waiting for him
Who's tracking the storm she's lost in
