	yeah this is definetly an awesome song!! its hard to say whats its about, it can be viewed in many ways but maybe its about being lost in a world that is in chaos and isnt complete.. if you agree or see it in any other way, post it upp! Great song, awesome cd, amazingg band..

No Picture isaac Average	#2 by isaac fritsch at Jul 26, 1985 at 3:03 PM EST

	I think that wbyeager is right. It's about wanting to know when the end is going to happen. That so many times, things described in Revelation have happened. But how many times will history have to repeat itself 'till finally "all we can say is save us". Until the word is finally completed- referring to Revelation. I think this is an awesome song to listen to. It certainly relieves stress as do a lot of Jason's songs.

No Picture More Cowbell Lead Player	#4 by More Cowbell at Nov 13, 1998 at 3:23 AM EST
	the electric guitar in this song, right before the chorus reminds me of another song i know but i can never remember this is my favorite song on this album besides my precious, it's beautiful

	There's actually a typo in the lyrics that are posted here - it's "how long 'til the WORD will be completed" not "how long 'til the WORLD will be completed." Although I guess it doesn't really affect my interpretation. This song is about waiting for the end of the age-it is possible the song is specifically talking about waiting for the rapture, one of the events leading up to the end of the world, as described in Revelation.
