Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My open eye to the light
Move to the shadow
Wait for it, wait for the night
Wait for the light in the night
Move with the stars in the night
Wait for it, wait for the night
[Verse 2]
My open eyes to the right
Even the fallow
Waits for it, waits for the right
Waits for the right time, you and I
In the mire, here, it is shallow
Shallow
[Verse 3]
Shine, you and I, broken light
Bodies are the ocean
See, it's inside you, and you're made for it
Made for the fight
Made for the fight, you were right
Move to the stars in the night
Into the sunrise
[Verse 4]
Set my, set my feet to fly
Speak on it, speak for the right
Reach for the right line, you and I
In the mire, leaving the shadows
[Chorus]
Wait for it, wait for it
Wait for it
Thus sayeth the Lorde
Wait for it, wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it, wait for it
Ooh, wait for it
[Chorus]
Wait for it
Thus sayeth the Lorde
Wait for it
[Outro]
My open eye to the light
Move to the shadow
Wait for it, wait for the night
Wait for the light in the night
Move with the stars in the night
Wait for it, wait for the night
[Outro]
My open eyes to the right
Even the fallow waits for it
Waits for the right
Waits for the right time, you and I
In the mire, here, it is shallow
