I sit here clutching useless lists Keys for doors that don't exist I crack my teeth on pearls Tear into the history Show me what it means to me in this world Yeah, in this world 'Cause I am due for a miracle I'm waiting for a sign I'll stare straight into the sun And I won't close my eyes 'Til I understand or go blind I see the parts, but not the whole I studied saints and scholars both But no perfect plan unfurls Do I trust my heart or just my mind? Why is truth so hard to find in this world? Yeah, in this world 'Cause I am due for a miracle I'm waiting for a sign I'll stare straight into the sun And I won't close my eyes 'Til I understand or go blind ('til I understand or go blind) I know that there's a point I've missed A shrine or stone I haven't kissed A scar that never graced my wrist A mirror that hasn't met my fist But I can't help feeling like I'm due for a miracle I'm waiting for a sign (waiting for a sign) I'll stare straight into the sun And I won't close my eyes (and I won't close my eyes) Due for a miracle I'm waiting for a sign I'll stare straight into the sun And I won't close my eyes
