rock steady

How long must one wait
before the wait ends for him
I can't blame you for trying
but please don't leave me crying

they said you don't know what you want
I think I've already found what I want
Are we looking for something we want
or something that's beyond our grasp

Just an item in the display window
for you to view poke and sample
Guess you never knew how it feels
to be one of many that you considered

And I'll just stand here and wait
just like a fishing hook with bait
surely i'm not just fodder for you
a light snack before the main course

But if that's how it ends,
my heart shall surely break,
it'll take weeks and maybe months
to sweep up all the broken pieces again.
