About Waffle

"Waffle" is a 1999 single by American alternative metal band Sevendust from their second album Home. A shot of the video is seen in the film Down to Earth. Two different versions of the song exist. One is the version that's on the album, while the other, mixed by Tom Lord-Alge, is the one used as the single. The only truly noticeable difference between the two versions is that the Tom Lord-Alge mix has a smoother drum track and a larger more clean sound with the guitars turned up louder in the mix and more reverb on the vocals . The Tom Lord-Alge mix is the one used on Best of (Chapter One 1997-2004). "Waffle" peaked on the Billboard Mainstream Rock and Modern Rock Tracks at #23 and #33, respectively.

A universe to fill
Can't scratch the surface
Now a slow pay
Still why everyone watching
It's like I'm real tired of the clones
I'm real tired of the clones

Whatever you you say
Whatever you say
Whatever you say

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Where's the space I fill
Where's the sympathy I killed
I need to find a meaning
I'm useless, I'm useless
Trapped inside my own web

Whatever you you say
Whatever you say
Whatever you say

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

When I'm alone
I stare at nothingness
Painful silence
Painful silence kills)

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light

Whatever you say
Whatever you say

Bring me a light
Make my life worth something more
Show me a light
Bring a light
