Matthew Good - Waiting For The Great Destruction video free download

Demo: Left of Normal, 1993

Waiting for the lights to change

The raindrops skip the wiper blades

The buildings fall, the sky and fades

And it carries me down

If you gave me the chance to be sincere

Do you think they'd let me out of here?

Got to to walk out into traffic

If I promise not to make a sound

And the look up on your face

Would be chiselled there forever

As the glass came through the windshield

And the car lifted from the ground

Maybe at my funeral

They'll say I found the answer

They'll say I had it coming

They'll say I was just sitting around

Waiting for the great destruction

I am waiting for Holden Caulfield to call

Waiting for the great destruction

I am waiting for the sky

The sky to open up

And make me feel small

Like a bird in bad weather

These engines before the stall

And time enough

To watch the free world fall

Under the black and blue handle glove

It won't take us all

Waiting for the lights to change

The lies they learn to rearrange

The truth they hold to exchange

And it carries me down

Second hand to the greater fear

These words of promise disappear

So I wrote them down to make it clear

That nothing was what I found

And if it was really all that easy

Don't you think I'd have given up by now?

And if the questions had an answer

They wouldn't be believable out loud

And you know that I would tell you

Even if it sounded like a lie

Funny thing about the truth is that

No one wonders to wonder why

And I will leave the car door open

As a symbol of my freedom

Like the riddles of a dead man

The living always need them

And in the end they'll say I'm crazy

'Cause I never gave a reason

He always talked about tomorrow

As if he were always leaving

And I am waiting for the great destruction

I am waiting for Holden Caulfield to call

Waiting for the great destruction

I am waiting for the sky

The sky to fall

Waiting for the sky

Waiting for the sky

Waiting for the sky
