This song mirrors my existence quite well. Well, perhaps not the getting hit by a car part, but you know, Tally Hall is currently on hiatus, and when you reflect on their past music and videos, you can't help but be awed. Tally Hall was truly something extraordinary. When you delve into their work, you yearn for more, you long for them to still be a band. But you can't wish for something that's already gone, and you don't know if it will return. It becomes an obsession, an unrelenting desire. Now, speaking of the song, Rob Cantor's voice is undeniably enchanting, no exaggeration. It's incredibly soothing, and the lyrics resonate with me deeply. They paint a picture of someone stuck in an unending routine, repeating the same cycle over and over. It's like being trapped on a never-ending train ride, a plastic train stuck in a cyclic routine, the same thing over and over again. It's a predictable flow, devoid of surprises, interrupted only by the natural wear and tear of the parts. And even if you wanted to change, perhaps you wouldn't succeed because, as the only cog in the system, you're condemned to be a disposable component in a rotten, unjust, unequal system. It's a realization that someday, or in years, you will meet your end. You won't remain on this Earth forever. The theories about the world's fate might prove true. The planet could erupt in flames, descending into utter chaos. You might come to realize that all your efforts were in vain, and you'll be waiting for the moment when you go, only for the cycle to begin anew.
Sighing, staring Lately I have stopped caring I'm stuck in a rut Waiting for something to come I don't want to bore you being sappy But I find it hard to be happy I'm not out having fun I'm waiting for something to come Best case scenario my job is totally pointless I spend my life looking up But there's nothing to see Worst case scenario Some giant death rock Is flying through space To destroy us Either way It's not a great outlook for me So I'm getting listless With the skylife Something's missing from my life My heart's going numb Waiting for something to- (Gets hit by a car) Something is coming I maintain All of this waiting Is not in vain I'll keep on waiting 'Til something comes Or maybe I'm waiting for someone Maybe I'm waiting for someone Maybe I'm waiting for someone
