I used to listen to this song on repeat (burned onto a CD) my freshman year of college. I never spoke to anyone--just class, walking, homework, walking, sleeping, this song. It takes me right back.
We've been waiting all our lives For things we've always had but have no eyes to see Something new is going to happen The most natural thing but nothing we'd expect All these buildings and mountains Slowly they'll arise before our eyes How do cities understand? We drink our wine and wonder why we're really here What's the point of even asking? You take the good and bad and make the best of it All these buildings and mountains Slowly they'll arise before our eyes All these buildings and mountains Slowly they'll arise before our eyes All of you watch to see us move Just make your fall before this age of industry But for today I'll let it go You've been good to me, have I been good to you?
I heard this song yesterday at a store. Loved it. I asked sales person if she knew the title or artist. She did not. The store was busy and much noise so I was only able to get the part of the lyrics That says BEFORE OUR EYES. It haunted me. I looked it up using these partial lyrics and the word MOUNTAIN which I also remembered. A bunch of songs came up but for some reason I zeroed in on The Republic Tigers. I read the entire lyrics and it made sense to me. This lead me to the video and VOILA! It is this very song! So happy! Love it! I can sleep tonight!
+Lara Mar It happened to me in a book store at mexico city nine months ago, the song was "The infidel" also by TRT and i found the song just a week ago, this group is awesome
Heard it two days ago on an episode of Chuck. Searched "we've been waiting all our lives", and found it. Brilliantly composed song. I'm going to have to check out the rest of the album.
Reminds me of 90s Depeche Mode. 1996 "Ultra" is one DM's best albums imo. After Daves's heroin Overdose. I'm born & raised in Kansas City. 1977-Prsnt. Grain Valley to Overland Park. Go Royals! Go Chiefs! Go Jayhawks!
I watching CHUCK season2 ep7 now. I immediately fall in love with this song. I'm Japanese and I'm not very good at English though, listen carefully to the lyrics, Google it, and finally came here!
I heard this song for the first time on Good Morning America. I'm HOOKED!(and I'm an old dude!) This is a beautiful and haunting song! AWESOME! 10 stars!
I heard this song thousands of times and every time played much more intense images in my head. It's like an amazing book with an ok movie.... love the song though
Totally - Chuck Best soundtrack of any series ever (excepting possibly Supernatural) and the highest "Hot-Chick Quotient" since Firefly "Guys - I know Kung-Fu"
Me too. With so much crap ("so-called music") being put out these days, their performance on Letterman was a breath of fresh air, something to get excited about. Very cool song.
How are people still finding out about this song? Sirius Left of Center used to play it like 5 years ago, but haven't played in years that I've seen. Love this jam.
Yeah, I told my son this reminded me of a mixture of Pink Floyd & Coldplay. He told me I was NUTS! HA! Thanks for the verification of at least one of the bands :-D
My mom liked this song whenever I played it. Miss you, Mom.
Still listening in 2020.
Same.
8 years later this album still holds up as one of my favorites
Same in 2022.
14 years. Best psychedelic song.
@@filteredview9302 same here, listening now

We've been waiting all our lives
For things we've always
had but have no eyes to see
Something new is going to happen
The most natural thing but nothing we'd expect
All these buildings and mountains
Slowly they'll arise before our eyes
How do cities understand?
We drink our wine and wonder why we're really here
What's the point of even asking?
You take the good and bad and make the best of it
All these buildings and mountains
Slowly they'll arise before our eyes
All these buildings and mountains
Slowly they'll arise before our eyes
All of you watch to see us move
Just make your fall before this age of industry
But for today I'll let it go
You've been good to me, have I been good to you?
