this has been one of my favorite songs for a long time.
lyrics
i've been waiting
i've been waiting for this moment all my life
but it's not quite right
and it's real, it's impossible impossible
at whose blind word
so clear but so unheard
i've been waiting
i've been waiting for this silence all night long
it's just a matter of time
to appear sad, with the same ol' decent lazy eye
fixed to rest on you
aim free but so untrue
everyone's so intimately rearranged
everyone's so focused clearly with such shine
locked and loaded
still the same ol' decent lazy eye
straight through your gaze
that's why i said i relate
it's so fun to relate
it's the moon, the sun, and the sky
