For a moment I can wait
It's a fight I guess I'll never know
For a moment I can wait
I'm holding on to hope
And I know you're stoned, I can see it
The struggle's getting old
For a moment I can wait

'Cause you said you're sober
Lying and I can't get closer
Tell me should I let you go?
Tell me should I let you go?
'Cause you said you're sober
Lying and I can't get closer
Tell me should I let you go?
Tell me should I let you go?

Every moment I'm awake
It's a fight that you could never know
Every moment I'm awake
I'm clinging on to hope
And I feel so low but I'm dealing
The struggle's getting old
Every moment I'm awake

But I'm getting sober
Trying but I can't get closer
Baby did you let me go?
Baby did you let me go?
Now I'm getting sober
Trying but I can't get closer
Baby did you let me go?
Baby did you let me go? (Go)

On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time
Thinking 'bout time
'Cause it's about time (go)

On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time
Thinking 'bout time
'Cause it's about time (about time)

So don't say it's over
Waiting here while you get sober
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
So don't say it's over
Waiting here while you get sober
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go (go)

On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time
Thinking 'bout time
'Cause it's about time (it's about time)

On and on we pray
Thinking 'bout time and our mistakes
Thinking 'bout time
Thinking 'bout time
It's about time

    My Interpretation

    This song is about getting closer to someone and finding out they're lying about being sober & thinking maybe you need to distance yourself from them because clearly they're too messed up to carry on a relationship with.
