Waiting

Waiting at the bus-stop to somewhere
Anywhere but here
It never seems to turn up
Stuck forever with this fear

So you try the train station
Hoping you’ll have better luck
But delays are in operation
Cancellations too, life sucks

In a queue you always are
This the bane of your life
You wonder why this is always so
Has anyone escaped, even tried?

Waiting for something to happen
Something good you always hope
Away from this boredom, these chains
Unshackled and free, anywhere to go

Waiting in the queue to nowhere
Anywhere but here will do
You plead for a way out
Prayers go unanswered to you
