Lazy Eye

I've been waiting I've been waiting for this moment all my life But it's not quite right

And this 'real' It's impossible if possible At who's blind word So clear but so unheard

I've been waiting I've been waiting for this silence all night long It's just a matter of time

To appear sad With the same old decent lazy eye Fixed to rest on you Aim free and so untrue

Everyone's so intimately rearranged Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine

Everyone's so intimately rearranged Everyone's so focused clearly with such shine

Lost and loaded Still the same old decent lazy eye Straight through your gaze That's why I said I relate I said we relate It's so fun to relate

It's the room, the sun, and the sky The room, the sun, and the sky

I've been waiting I've been waiting for this moment

I have been in love with this song for a very long time now and never heard anyone's opinion of the meaning of it line up with mine so I thought I would get mine out there.

He's been waiting to feel close with a certain person all his life and he thinks he might have found her, but something doesn't feel quite right. Still, it feels good to be in love so he ignores the feeling.

The second verse is about him getting advice from friends and/or family and trying to see if anyone else sees the love budding between them. They caution him and he decides not to hear it.

The third verse is where he finally gets a moment alone with her or with his own thoughts. I'm not quite sure which. He feels confident that she is into him and it's only a matter of time before she tells him.

The fourth verse, about the lazy eye is him trying to use his peripheral vision to look at her because he is afraid to confront her about his feelings or get caught checking her out. He appears sad because he can't express himself.

To me it seems like the next verse is him noticing how everyone admires her as he does.

Next verse seems to be about how he feels he relates to her on everything and they are perfect for each other, only he doesn't realize he is faking who he is and convincing himself that they relate.

In the end he reiterates the whole reason he lies to himself this way: he has been waiting for true love a long time and he wants so badly for this to finally be it.
