Eyes as Candles

I found these lyrics for the ending verse, and I think they might be from the official lyrics booklet:

I've waited and waited for someone to take it Don't fight it, don't bother an inch for another Don't listen, don't hear them, they're in this together I've learned well; now hear me, there's much to be fearing I'm used to your absence, your faceless distraction I've painted your patterns but found them attractive Now I've been leaning towards a life far more candid Though lead through the dark with your eyes as my candles Where your life and my life's directions can wrangle And all of a sudden you've left me to handle The reasons that never forbid me to stand tall And somehow or somewhere I found out the secret To staying alive without actually breathing

I've listened, and they do sound correct :) If anyone has the official booklet can you confirm these are correct?

"I twitch and tweak allusion to sit and stare so blankly into our whole confused house." Sounds more like... "I twitch and tweak in illusion to sit and stare so blankly until (all/our) hope is used up."

As many have said, these are the correct lyrics. The leaked copy had the tracks named wrongly, that's all.

Regardless of the song's name, it is an amazing one! and maybe not to everyone, but to me, it's about crying out to God when it seems like He isn't there, which can be alot: "where do you go when i'm around?" the part about wearing the crown really makes me think its about seeking God because in the Bible He is the king and we are his children, therefore princes and princesses, wearing a crown, but he feels unworthy. the second verse is his family encouraging him to keep seeking when it's hard and the end result is dying to the flesh and becoming "flowers" for picking(God's to be used as He chooses). The ending spiel is my favorite, he's telling how he finally found him after he's "waited and waited" and the world has told him "don't bother an inch for another". He's been used to not seeing God in his, and others', lives and "painting his problems" to fit his unhappiness until after "leaning towards a life more caring" he sees what its all about! as i type this it seems very obvious of the meaning so maybe thats why noone has commented on it but hey, i thought i'd share what goes on in this crazy mind! so yeah, sorry if this was pointless haha to end i must say: yay Passion Pit!!!

For all of the confusion about the song title, they have it correct. I have the actual manners album.

thought that was odd, but the copy I have has this labeled as "eyes as candles". which is "eyes as candles", then?

And amazon.com also has this listed as "Eyes as Candles"... I understand why you say it's wrong, but I'm not so sure you're right.

lyric: "to kingdom come so slightly."

that might answer questions about the song title. i love both songs though.

I know that's what it says, obviously. But go to amazon.com and check their sample. I'm leaving the title as is until the album comes out.

And if this is "to Kingdom Come", then which one is "Eyes as Candles"???
