When the message was over
By the house
Near the grave
So you wander in, aimless
For a while
And went away
It was common to pardon
Was it wrong?
In a way
I defended your drama
I'm a heart
You're a brain
All I wanna do is wait
For you
All I wanna do is wait
For you
There's nothing left to say
This capital carnage
On a float
A parade
Now you're craving your karma
Where'd it go?
And what'd it say?
All I wanna do is wait
For you
All I wanna do is wait
For you
There's nothing left to say
Am I losing my patience? I feel it
I'm afraid that you know, you can see it
Let me stand by the door, let me breathe in
I forgave myself, so forgive yourself
I'm not trying to stand in the way
I'm in love with whoever you are
Nothing here is gonna take that away
It is you and it's been from the start
By the house
Near the grave
So you wander in, aimless
For a while
And went away
It was common to pardon
Was it wrong?
In a way
I defended your drama
I'm a heart
You're a brain
All I wanna do is wait
For you
All I wanna do is wait
For you
There's nothing left to say
This capital carnage
On a float
A parade
Now you're craving your karma
Where'd it go?
And what'd it say?
All I wanna do is wait
For you
All I wanna do is wait
For you
There's nothing left to say
Am I losing my patience? I feel it
I'm afraid that you know, you can see it
Let me stand by the door, let me breathe in
I forgave myself, so forgive yourself
I'm not trying to stand in the way
I'm in love with whoever you are
Nothing here is gonna take that away
It is you and it's been from the start

As mentioned earlier a bit Nash & Rudd. We saw Graham Nash last week and at age 82 he is incredibly energetic and pissed off at all the right things - sadly events similar to what he sang in protest about 50 years ago. A beautiful and very funny guy. He told tales of Joni and Rita and dropping acid and tripping at Stonehenge and getting stopped by Immigration Man.

MO set the bar very high with their earlier material. It might be near-impossible to recreate it
The rest of their stuff is pretty good,

Some nice dynamics, a ton of reverb but overall it doesn't captivate me. I'd be interested to hear more from this band though.
i'll give it a 3-4. a little dull.
Sweet. 7 for now.
I confess I'm always baffled by comments like this. Do you expect everyone to have the same taste in music? Wouldn't that be super boring? As it happens I gave the song an 8, but I also regularly give songs a 1 or 2 if I really don't like them.
