lyrics

Quick just think of something
‘Cause everybody’s asking where you’ve been
But what’s the point in talking
When it all just ends right back where it began?

And I feel all these eyes on me now
And I know I’m due to let you down

But they say, “Wait for your moment
The days may be slow
But all these things go
Through their motions
The tides will turn in time
We know they will
We know they will”

If I keep on asking questions
I might never find those answers that I want
‘Cause I’ve seen life is just a contest
Who can learn the fastest to live with what they’ve got?

And I think all these dreams are gonna take me down
You can fall in line or just get out

Besides, where would you be
If you woke up from sleep
And had your whole life figured out?
Wouldn’t it hurt you to find
What you’d searched for your whole life
Could be found in the blink of an eye?

I think it would
Yeah I think it would

So hold on ‘til the end of the road

And they say, “Wait for your moment
The days may be slow
But all these things go
Through their motions
The tides will turn in time
The knots will all unwind
The sun will melt the ice
The days will turn to nights
We know they will

Man in a Crowd New York, New York

We love making music and playing shows. We’re not that fond of writing third-person biographies and comparing our sound to a synthesis of indistinguishable post-genres. We hope our songs will get your feet stomping, your knees knocking, and your heart pounding – because that’s what they do for us. ... more
