Wait Until
Binocular Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pictures fade in and out as
I dig into the recess of your mind
So if you hold the other hand and I'll hold mine
As pictures fade in and out as I

No one can help you but you
No one can say anything true
No one can save you but me
I will be the answer that you seek

If you wait until the smoke has all cleared
Wait until the ashes have blown away
Wait until the fire dies down
If you wait until you can feel alive again

This destiny lies deep inside your heart
Truth is always waiting where you start
But pictures, places, memories hold you down
'Cause they're the only things you've ever known

No one can help you but you
No one can say anything true
No one can save you but me
I will be the answer that you seek

If you wait until the smoke has all cleared
Wait until the ashes have blown away
Wait until the fire dies down
If you wait until you can feel alive again

If you wait
If you wait
If you wait




If you wait
If you wait

Pictures fade in and out as I dig into the recess of your mind So if you hold the other hand and I'll hold mine As pictures fade in and out as I

No one can help you but you No one can say anything true No one can save you but me I will be the answer that you seek
You must rescue yourself, nobody else can / Your truth is unique, only you know it / I will provide the solution you're searching for, nobody else can save you


If you wait until the smoke has all cleared Wait until the ashes have blown away Wait until the fire dies down If you wait until you can feel alive again
Don't act until the chaos has been resolved / Don't act when everything has turned to ash / Don't act when the intensity fades / Don't act until you're ready to truly live

Your fate resides within your emotions / Clarity starts from within / Our past restricts us as it's the only reality we've ever lived

Don't rush


If you wait
Take your time


If you wait
Don't force the issue


If you wait
Wait for the right moment


If you wait
Don't act impulsively
