The lyric is "walking silver wall". I wrote it.

Somebody was balancing on their head doing yoga listening to this song. 1 dislike!

[slymanward]

does anyone know what he means by a walking silver wall?

[hunterslogan]

@slymanward "the way you were/ long before/ you were a walking civil war" - it's a great lyric

[Tuzotonic]

@slymanward

The line is "walking civil war."

[MrHokeykokey]

My favourite part of this song is near the end when the those beautiful ascending violins kick in. Did they ever perform live with a full orchestra? If so, this song would sound amazing!

[Useless2112]

I wrote this song.

[MuratMeah]

"I love this song"

Corrected :)

[amaliajefw]

@Useless2112 bravo!

[jesssports11]

@Useless2112 lol you wish

[Abortive]

the lyrics are like losing a love one among a crowd of ghosts. endlessly is the stealer in eerie introspective loss. a true indie classic. only topped by the soft bulletin.

now they're playing with synths and bullshit soundscapes that mirror nothing less then the admiration of art. where'd it go wrong after all is dream?

[Spectrum345]

@Abortive Agree about their new stuff

[zangief]

@Abortive Poetically put, but I like synths and bullshit soundscapes! ;)

I adore the strings on this. As with so many Mercury Rev songs the production is extraordinary.

[AmyLilies]

So beautiful..

If this makes you cry; listen to "The Dark is Rising"...

[Haldo84]

splendida!

[jesssports11]

I love this song. I have heard it since I was a little baby. My dad said he heard this song on a talk show in the early 90's. It should have made it n=big time. I love this song. It makes me think of the past. Ive herad it over 1,00 times. Its on my iPod!!!

[spaceman79]

This is such a prophetic description of the end of my last relationships.... really. Even the lightin' cigarrete verse.....

It's anything near 'fantastic' this song. Sometimes it can bring me tears to the eyes....

[SpidersORFlies]

@spaceman79 How I understand you! I feel the same. This song is prophetic for me too! :(

[achin70]

Maybe my favorite song by the Rev!
