(B) The Decade of Statues Songtext
von Between the Buried and Me

I will just keep waiting (you will just keep waiting)
I will just keep waiting (you will just keep waiting)
I will just keep waiting (you will just keep waiting)
I will just keep waiting
Obsession, obsessive
Obsessed, abscessed
Obsession, obsessive
Obsessed, abscessed
Rip out my fucking eyes
I can′t watch you grow into this
I can't watch the young turn to all of this
Their eyes left wide
Night goggles instead of sleep
Night goggles instead of sleep
Live life (you have all helped me be free from this)
The few times (relaxation steps in, bringing me a peaceful place)
Live life (you have all helped me be free from this)
The few times (relaxation steps in, bringing me a peaceful place)


It′s a must these days
Colors are fading
It's a must these days
Colors are fading
It's a must these days
Colors are fading
It′s a must these days
Colors are fading

Enclosed in a space of soothing sounds

Walking in my own movie
The fly-by with no remembrance
Constant rushing
The waves have pushed me to where I need to be
Walking in my own movie
The fly-by with no remembrance
Constant rushing
The waves have pushed me to where I need to be
Sunlight drenched on my skin

Only the sounds of what my mind wants to hear
Block out the rush hour
Block out the tired herds
Only the sounds of what my mind wants to hear
Block out the rush hour
Block out the tired herds
On the shaded side
It′s starting to affect the process of your reading eyes
An aggressive need for hostile voice is creeping away


This block happens every year
(And like I said before, the color keeps fading)
This block happens every year
(I couldn't trade this for anything in the world)
This block happens every year (and all of you are the reason)
This block happens every year (you′re the reason)

It's been a while since we′ve written each other,
And hopefully this will comfort you
'Cause like most of my kind I won′t take it all for granted
Hopefully

I will just keep waiting

You will just keep waiting

It's a must these days
Colors are fading
It's a must these days
Colors are fading
It′s a must these days

Colors are fading
