lyrics

I threw it all away, went back to the start
I gave you everything, especially my heart
I stand with empty hands and eyes at the floor
And I just can't do this no more

My Grampa always used to say this a lot
"It's time to shit or just get off of the pot"
There is a time to reap and a time to sew
And I just can't do this no more

Expectations of some forward motion leads to regret, that's what I get
Time to gamble on a cross-country ramble but you just won't bet
Can't keep waiting for a lifetime, waiting for a lifetime, what is it for?
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting for you no more

Somebody told me once and I know it's true
It's darkest right before the light comes shining through
Life is a journey, not a place that you go
I wish I knew that before

You can't appreciate lifes riches you get
Until you've been so dirty-poor with regret
Time is the only thing you don't want to owe
And that's a lesson I know

Expectations of some forward motion leads to regret, that's what I get
Time to gamble on a cross-country ramble but you just won't bet
Can't keep waiting for a lifetime, waiting for a lifetime, what is it for?
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting for you no more
Can't keep doing all the same things thinking that the outcome's just gonna change
Defenition of insanity will always be the same
Can't keep waiting for a lifetime, waiting for a lifetime, what is it for
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting for you no more
no more
no more

CJ Orazi Orlando, Florida

Guitar chops honed in the big knife fight known as rock & roll and lyrics earnest enough to make Danny Trejo shed a tear, CJ brings a fresh take on the singer/songwriter genre. His songs expose a rawness that no amount of tattoos and cigarette smoke can cover up.
Bluesy, rock & roll, and a bit old-school country, Orazi evokes emotional response through music that T Swift only dreams about. ... more
