    The song "Everyone's Waiting" describes the pressure of performing for others and feeling disconnected from one's true self. It discusses putting on a costume and persona to meet expectations but feeling distant from one's true feelings. The chorus expresses how it is getting harder to hear what the heart is truly saying because everyone is waiting. The song conveys a desire to turn it all off and stop trying to please others.
