Still Waiting (erasure)

Still Waiting by Sum 41
(erasure poem)
Still Waiting
for
a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in.
Drop dead
Your words
can't change the state of the nation.
These eyes have seen
lies and more contradiction.
tell
its time
Still Waiting
For
a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in.
Ignorance
the first
step to
How far we take this
It's not hard
tell
its time
Still Waiting
For
a good reason
Can't find hope to believe in.
forever
makes things better
I alone
Can't help
No one knows me.
a war that can't be won
I don't know what to feel.
Still Waiting
For
a good reason
Can't find hope to believe.

Try erasing even more. Erase words like "contradiction" into "contract" or "forever" into "over." It doesn't have to make sense either.
