Analysis of Wait for me
Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)
Someone could find me
If I wasn't so far
If I wanted to be found
I would give you a sign
But I'd rather stay
As I am in this state
Alone without hope
You just have to wait
I won't let you enter
Until I stop the bleeding
Until I'll once more
Care if I'm living
Maybe darkness will fade
Then I'll tell you one thing
It was just because of you
That my lips couldn't sing
Cause I knew you'd never love
You wouldn't be here with me
I thought I'd be able to stand
But I never was , will never be
So please wait some more
Till the flood will end
Till the fire burns out
Wait for sign I will send
This sign you saw before
I didn't show for a while
One thing in me you love
My rare and carefree smile
