Bright Eyes "I Watched You Taking Off" letra

I Watched You Taking Off

Meaning is sometimes hard to spotIt begins with the flickering of cigarettesIn the darkness of a dorm roomSomewhere in the suffocated mid-westBut if this is real, then I was mistakenAnd if there is truth, then why can't we find it?But beauty comes to those who have been waitingFor something that is bigger than themselves

But this is the sound of the hopeless kidsAs they scream from the basementsOf the houses of their parents and...This is the sound of the hopeless ones

As they stare down at their booksAnd realize they have been lied toBut if this is real, then I was mistakenIf the vision's gone, then I was not aware

Consistency like that which I have cravedIs that people change so unexpectedlyAnd realization finds you in a drunken airportSome planes depart and others never arrived

So with this in mind, I don't plan on waitingIf it's time to leave and break these old tiesWithout something more the vision is fadingBut until it's gone the pain will make us try

But this is the hope I have been searching forAs the wings catch the sunlight of the cold Nebraska skylineAnd this is the dream I am dying inAs I wake to find tomorrowBe content without perfectionBut if this is real then I was mistakenIf the vision is gone then I was not aware
