I've only waited for so long
So, so long
Cause I have waited so long
See a black girl in the corner
So proud of being so sad
But I guess she's got more of reason than a white dude like me
Created a world that's famous to me
Throw me a rope and set me free
Cause I'm drowning, but I just won't up and die
A modern guy in a modern world just feelin'
Creeping in the parking lot but hey it ain't like that
Cause I'm sitting here, writing it down, trying to figure it out
So I can move on and forget about
Created a world that's famous to me
Throw me a rope and set me free
Cause I'm drowning and I just won't up and die
I've loved so hard
That it's made me believe
That I don't believe in me at all
And I'm getting pretty good at it
Ohh, ohhh
Ahhh, ohhh
Ahhh, ohhh
Ahhh, ohhh
I created a world that's famous to me
Throw me a rope and set me free
Cause I'm drowning but I just won't up and die
