Lyrics:
People
In the middle
Life's a riddle
Not a game of dice...
Not for a man who rolls with ice
Days turn
Faster than a minute
How was I to know this?
Would you even notice me?
They're imposters
We threw away the time!
Anagram
I'm just the messenger, man
It's the last
Time around
One of these days I wished you were around
Anagram
If we're just passengers
Then it's the first
Time around
One of these days I wished you were around!
All the people
In white stockings
Talk with pride
They'll be waving all the flags at night
Which will I decide?
Cuz they're imposters...
I'm making up my mind
Anagram
I'm just the messenger, man
It's the last
Time around
One of these days I wished you were around
Anagram
If we're just passengers
Then it's the first
Time around
One of these days I wished you were around!
Glide!
I stand in the light of your eyes
I'll see you another time
Come on baby roll the dice
I'm feeling like it's gon' break
This time will stars align?
I'm thinking that it's all the same
Anagram
I'm just the messenger, man
It's the last
Time around
One of these days I wished you were around
Anagram
If we're just passengers
Then it's the first
Time around
One of these days I wished you were around!
Anagram!
Anagram!

Okay, so, I was on a flight to Hawaii when my Mom found a piece of scrap paper in between her seat and the person next to her's seat, and on it was written about half of the lyrics to this song. I didn't know it at the time, I just thought it was a really cool poem, and I liked it so much that I put it up on the cork-board I have in my room. I just decided to search the lyrics to see if they were related to anything and I found this song! I actually didn't have super high hopes for it (let's just say I can be kinda picky with my music sometimes), but I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!! So, thanks to whoever wrote those lyrics down and left it in the airplane! :)

[@bauron1985]

That is a great event - thanks for sharing

[@GeorgeRappel]

Kristen Teagarden Great story! maybe I'll share the lyrics like that sometime hahaha

[@laniiscool2]

rad

[@ashlilopez13]

Kristen Teagarden L.O.V.E. !!

[@whickked]

Hey this is random and super late but this is one of my favorite songs ever and I’ve written out the lyrics for this song on multiple occasions for various reasons. Is there a picture of it you have? I would be really happy if this was my handwriting because spreading the love of this band is priceless

[@notherntranceaddict181]

It amazes me that people don't consider this to be their best song. It's epic!!

[@BertoBeats]

Dear God I fucking love this song.

[@kayamari1244]

That little violin part from 3:07 to 3:14 is the best part of the song imo

[@FaintBastard]

didnt even notice it when i listened the first dozen times

[@Starky25]

AMEN. I love artists that actually have musical talent and know how to layer sounds. It's almost seems like a lost art nowadays.

[@philiptyler9982]

Can't express in words how much this song means to me.

[@shamelmae]

I keep discovering new songs in this album everyday because it recommended me them and I never get disappointed, crystallized, firelight, waves, mind over matter. They’re all such a great songs and I hope KZbin keeps recommending me more cus this one is a masterpiece too

[@nicholasmilillomusic]

I want to remix FireLight so badly. I DO have the acapella for Simplify *and HAD a pretty neat beat to accompany it.. but sadly lost to time... I'll most likely end up making a new beat around it.

[@hekalu8399]

Life's a riddle not a game of dice is weirdly profound yet so true

[@Starky25]

Ah, high school. Life was care free, and easy. This entire album will always take me right back! LOVE IT.

[@vilAvain]

Wow the first song I ever heard from them was cough syrup that I heard on a radio and i was hooked they're freaking amazing I'm so glad I found them....

[@SRLovesPandas1]

RainbowSocks099 My first Young the Giant song was My Body, and it was great :)

[@baileyjordan9518]

My first was Strings, and it was amazing. 💓

[@guillermodominguez9001]

Mine was Cough Syrup, damn, it´s such a good song...

[@IloveGod304]

I know this is old but God made man was my first and I've loved them since.

[@sauce1302]

On the radio??

[@kayleighfranco2098]

They’re so underrated it makes me physically ill

[@cblakel]

If you like 50% of a bands tunes, they are considered one of your favorites. What if you like everything they put out? They are so fucking good! I wish I could write music that fed my soul like this....

[@fuchsfarben]

I've been coming back to this song for years now. Months can pass and then suddenly, one morning I'll have this song stuck in my head :) Its always such joy to rediscover it.

[@beadgala]

Unbearably beautiful, I even want to cry every time I listen to this song.

[@Icon906]

Glad I’m not the only one

[@genuinekay]

I love the in the open!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@longlivethequeenaudrey8047]

best band to play while longboarding along the streets

[@bigaleinstein4639]

100%

[@brucedegrouchy1976]

One of my fav bands to motivate me when I ride my snowboard!

[@notwilla]

That's what I imagine listening to this band they're so good

[@BoiledPlums]

Idk what's gayer James Charles or this comment

[@notwilla]

@@BoiledPlums what that someone's listening to Good music while doing something they like?

[@pretzelsandgasjets]

That was mental.

[@sailentapollo3221]

The 98 👎on this song really makes me question the taste people have in music this song is beautiful

[@tallonrk1]

Favorite song on the album :)

[@tallonrk1]

Does anyone know what the lyrics mean though?

[@imtheangeliza]

i love your profile picture :D

[@XxXSnoopyAwesomeXxX]

Im agreeing with you SO HARD RIGHT NOW!!! :D

[@Shell1425]

I've had this song on constant repeat for days! The mix of vocals, guitars, violins, and etc I just can't deal. A True Eargasm!!!!!!

[@kelvinkronicles]

Didn't really care for this song initially, but after hearing it several times, I realize how beautiful and moving the song actually is! One of the best songs I know!!

[@keithjohnson3534]

Interesting: the very first time I heard this song come on the college radio station in my car without warning, I was immediately transfixed. I happen to be driving through the town I was living after a freshly fallen snow-covered neighborhood late afternoon on an early April weekday. I’ll never forget where I was when I first heard this amazing gem of a song.

[@evanshaw2473]

This band has a very smooth sound, but its still unique. Young the Giant is awesome in all definitions of the word.

[@an-ks8jz]

I was a junior in highschool when i discovered this band. Lots of great memories associated with their music

[@oceanrosethatsailsacrossth3466]

I currently a junior in high school and i found thia song thanks to my English teacher

[@sapphiraescalante2125]

I honestly can't stop listening to their music , their lyrics are always so powerful

[@Icon906]

This song gives me a feeling I can’t describe. But they nailed it. I never get tired of hearing, or feeling this way. 🧡

[@jaylon4realz]

[@valentintorres843]

Yes

[@g2gpotty]

the best song on the album. no doubt.

[@sashaguimaraes603]

i might cry this album is just fucking perfect. amen for god music

[@HyruleWanderer]

If this song turns to food i will freaking eat it.

[@DavidTitus_]

If in the future with extreme technological advancements we can probably create something to generate an infinite amounts of different tastes, one could then try to correlate music with the tastes and possibly create a food from it. So maybe one day. :)

[@Changoman111]

Blowing my mind with awesomeness and goodness. Quality

[@brandonandalexander]

Wow they really went balls out on the production of this one...Holy shit...

[@neil3094]

im so happy i found this band

[@ringsofjade]

They played this at Austin360 on yesterday when they opened for Kings of Leon, and played after Kongos. Man, that was a great concert. It was amazing.

[@quizeekimo]

Forever 21 literally plays this song on repeat. And yes. That is why I'm here

[@sararahtz8574]

One of those songs that took a few plays and quickly became one of my faves on the album. Such a good album altogether tho.
