Bright Eyes - I Watched You Taking Off Lyrics

Send "I Watched You Taking Off" ringtone to your cell

Meaning is sometimes hard to spot

Begins with the flickering of cigarettes

In the darkness of a dorm room

Somewhere in this suffocated mid west

But if this is real then I was mistaken

And if there is truth then why can't we find it?

But beauty comes to those who have been waiting

For something that is bigger than themselves

But this is the sound of the hopeless kids

As they scream from the basements of the houses of their parents

And this is the sound of the hopeless ones

As they stare down at their books

And realize that they have been lied to

But if this is real then I was mistaken

And if the vision is gone and I was not aware

Consistency like that which I have craved

Is that people change so unexpectedly

And realization finds you in a drunken airport

Some planes depart and others never arrived

So with this in mind I don't plan on waiting

If it's time to leave and break these old ties

Without something more the vision is fading

But until it's gone the pain will make us try it will make us try

But this is the hope I have been searching for

As the wings catch the sunlight of the cold Nebraska skyline

And this is the dream I am dying in

As I wakes up find tomorrow be content without perfection

But if this is real then I was mistaken

And if the vision is gone then I was not aware
