What Are You Waiting for Lyrics

You are standing in the doorway

Cannot decide

Whether you should go in or out

Behind your back

There is your old life

While the new and unknown

Is expecting you outside

What are you waiting for

What is holding you back

All your life

You have been in there

Carried by decisions

Made by other people

You look around

And see all those cute flowers

Growing in their pots

Exactly as their gardener wants them to

All your life

You have been waiting there

See where it has got you

What are you waiting for

What is holding you back

Have you tried

To step over the doorstep

Have you ever tried

To do something uncomfortable

Why is it so hard to try

Just try it for the first time

And we'll see

What are you waiting for

What is holding you back

Outside the plants and trees

Don't grow easily

And you put effort in then

And even then

They will possibly die though

But there is always someone

Who can help you

And if you try

Then you will see

The plants and trees grow even bigger

And bigger

And bigger

And bigger

Than they had ever been inside

What are you waiting for

Let me hold your back

No one is waiting for you

Why would you do
