The Gospel Acording To The Silversun Pickups



I love when song lyrics take on new meanings in my head.
I have been listening to LazyEye by Silversun Pickups alot like anyone else who ever turns on the end (they play it way too much)
But I was just listening to the lyrics and it seems to me like they explain the reaction of the disciples between the Jesus's death and resurrection.
take some time and play the video and read the lyrics and then at the bottom of the blog ill explain how i think it does this leave me comments about what you think.

I've been waiting
i've been waiting for this moment all my life
but it's not quite right

and this 'real'
it's impossible if possible
at who's blind word
so clear but so unheard

i've been waiting
i've been waiting for this silence all night long
it's just a matter of time

to appear sad
with the same 'ol decent lazy eye
fixed to rest on you
aim free and so untrue

everyone's so intimately rearranged
everyone can focus clearly with such shine

everyone's so intimately rearranged
everyone can focus clearly with such shine

lost and loaded
still the same 'ol decent lazy eye
straight through your gaze
that's why i said i relate
i said we relate
it's so fun to relate

it's the room the sun and the sky
it's the room the sun and the sky

i've been waiting
i've been waiting for this moment...

The Jews and the disciples were waiting for the time the Messiah would take power and have the greatest kingdom of all Jesus did all of this yet not in the way the Average Jew would think the prophesy was fulfilled.

The disciples would be thinking that this is impossible the Messiah cant die there whole world shifted upside down.

The would sit there in the upper room of there house waiting to see whats next staring up at the stars. Hoping this wasn't real...there leader the man who they followed for years is gone what is going to happen to them are they going to die to?
They related to him his humanness yet his godliness was why they followed him.
Yet the reason they related is now the reason hes gone.

So they sit there all night long
and 3 days pass...
