Casting Crowns - Waiting On The Night To Fall Lyrics
There's an old man living in the back of your woods tonightYou forgot he was even there, but you've never slipped his mindHes living off of scraps of you you never knew you left behindAnd as the sun goes down, he rises with a smileHes waiting on the night to fallThe old mans coming to callYou don't see the writing on the wallHell never step out in the lightNo, hes just biding timeAnd while you slumber, hes gonna come and take it allHes waiting on the night to fallHes waiting on the night to fallHe knows you have the answers, but Truth lies dusty on your shelfAnd the sword that you could slay him with has become an ornament and nothing elseYou could put him back down in his hole in the ground, but he knows you never willHes been around so long you got used to the smellHe knows hell never have your soulBut he will gladly rob you blindWhile you're feasting at his table, hell tie your hands and numb your mindHell take you farther than you wanna goHell keep you longer than you wanna stayAnd it will cost you more than you ever thought you'd payHes waiting on the nightHes waiting on the night to fallThe old mans coming to callBut you don't see, you don't see the writing on the wallHes waiting on the nightHes waiting on the night to fallHes waiting on the night to fall
