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
Manchester Orchestra is an American indie rock band from Atlanta, Georgia, that formed in 2004. The group's current line-up is composed of lead singer, songwriter and rhythm guitarist Andy Hull, lead guitarist Robert McDowell, bassist Andy Prince and drummer Tim Very. Hull is the band's only original member, having overseen every iteration of the band to date. Former drummer Jeremiah Edmond parted ways with the band in January 2010 to focus on his family and on running the band's record label, Favorite Gentlemen. The band's original bassist, Jonathan Corley, parted ways with the band in 2013. Keyboardist/percussionist Chris Freeman announced his departure from the band in September 2016.
Manchester Orchestra has released several extended plays and six studio albums to date: I'm Like a Virgin Losing a Child (2006), Mean Everything to Nothing (2009), Simple Math (2011), Cope (2014) (as well as its accompanying acoustic version, Hope), A Black Mile to the Surface (2017), and The Million Masks of God (2021). They are signed to independent record label Favorite Gentlemen Recordings, which is distributed through Sony Music Entertainment and Loma Vista Recordings.
The band has performed at major music festivals such as Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Coachella, Riot Fest, Shaky Knees Music Festival, Firefly Music Festival, Reading and Leeds Festivals, and Austin City Limits Music Festival
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.
Sweet. 7 for now.
Agreed.
I'm not one of those, however there is an element of pretentiousness perhaps in this song, and that may be swinging the votes.
The rest of their stuff is pretty good,
MO set the bar very high with their earlier material. It might be near-impossible to recreate it
Bill likes this a little too much.
yeah, heavy rotation is a lot.
