okay, i've been listening to this phrase by phrase over and over tonight, and this is what i hear. i'm not saying it's right.. it's just what i hear. i've changed my mind on a few thoughts that i've already posted. i don't hear "we" anymore, and i don't think it's "guide" or "our way". this is what i'm hearing tonight:

i'm a little lost let me find my way
i'm a little dead let me live
been livin' in the past let me rise today
led a selfish live and i wanna give

how long, how long, how long
how long we wait
waitin' for the light that might light a way
waitin' for the right twist of fate

(correction to my earlier post, it sounds like "you" to me now.)
you were living under the reign of kings
you were living under the gun
i know we made you do a lot of things
you wish that you'd never done

how long, how long, how long
we hesitate
waitin' for the light that might light a way
waitin' for the right twist of fate

rah tah tah tah tah
rah tah tah tah tah
rah tah tah-uhh-uhh
rah tah tah tah tah
rah tah tah tah tah
rah tah tah-uhh-uhh

come along lay down and talk to me
tell me all your fear will allow
it doesn't matter who we thought we were
we ain't got time for it now

how long, how long, how long
how long we wait
waitin' for the light that might light a way
waitin' for the right twist of fate

i swear, i swear, i swear
it's not too late
waitin' for the light that might light a way
waitin' for the right twist of fate
waitin' for the light that might light a way
waitin' for the right twist of fate

waitin' for the right twist of fate
waitin' for the right twist of fate
ooh hoo hoo
ahh-hh-hh
ooh hoo hoo ... etc.



that being said, i do wish he would say "guide" instead of "light" a second time. that kind of irks me a bit, but i do still enjoy the song.
