"Don't Wait" is the first single from the album Dusk and Summer by Dashboard Confessional.

The song was written by the lead singer of Dashboard Confessional, Chris Carrabba.

Chris, now in the city walks oblivious to the fact that time is speeding ahead, Time gets faster, days and nights, seasons, Chris witnesses billboards changing and buildings being constructed.

Finally so far ahead it seems civilization has ended, greenery takes over the city and eventually all the skyscrapers have been worn down.

The video suggests that it takes place in New York City but was filmed mostly in downtown Los Angeles.
