Setting themselves a challenging role in late 2008 to write, record and release a fresh batch of music every six months, Drawn from Bees spent their formative year building a name and proving themselves as something more than a band with a crazy idea.

The Sky Is Falling EP, offers a respite from the pace of earlier releases; a breathier departure from the building rock crescendos of The Boy & The Ocean EP, and the controlled, rollicking beat of And The Blind Shall Lead The Way.

Waiting For The End
Drawn From Bees Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You?ve become a broken heart
You?ve become a place to start
Looking for the end
I?ve become accustomed to
Sitting back and watching you
Waiting for the end
This is just a place to be
This is just a place to sit

Waiting for the end
I?m so removed
And I don?t care if it?s you

If I choose to know
The ending, I wouldn?t change a thing

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Drawn From Bees's "Waiting for the End" are quite poignant, and seem to revolve around a sense of weariness or apathy towards a relationship, and perhaps even towards life itself. The opening lines, "You've become a broken heart / You've become a place to start" suggest that the relationship in question has soured or become stagnant, and possibly even started on the wrong foot. The singer seems to be waiting for something to change, some kind of resolution to the situation. The chorus, "Looking for the end / I've become accustomed to / Sitting back and watching you / Waiting for the end" reinforces this sense of resignation - it's as if the singer has given up actively trying to make things work, and is just waiting for things to run their course, for the natural conclusion to emerge.
