The greatest lesson to learn is to wait
Marking an x on each calendar date
Each day waits for night, then dark waits for light
We wait and wait and slowly start to hate
Each slight inconvenience to do us wrong
A handful of people seem like a throng
We wait for each meal, for our scars to heal
For the comfort of somewhere we belong
Waiting for a burst of inspiration
Being controlled by procrastination
Agreements we make promises we break
For seeking instant gratification
The greatest lesson to learn is to wait
There's no way to know when now is too late
