DoubleDrive - 1000 Yard Stare

Album: 1000 Yard Stare (1999)

Lyrics:

The hidden - undiscovered,
It was the last stone to be turned,
A needle scratched the surface,
I don't know where it's gonna go.
I don't care,
Gotta lose myself to get somewhere,
But if i'm gone too long then
I might be a victim of that superstar
1000 yard stare.
(Cover my eyes and move, and we're still coming clear)
Well I have no direction,
No talking it out,
So what if I'm dead and shooting when I hear the sound?
Looming far from home... light years...
I'm deep in the stare and it comes back,
I never had the strength to let it go...
And it's taken some time... taken some time.
I figure I may never come back,
until I have a faith so long and sure...
And's it's taking some time.... taking some time.
There ain't nobody gonna wait too long,
There ain't nobody gonna wait ....
So long, so long, so long.
I don't care,
Gotta loose myself to get somewhere,
But if I'm gone too long then
I might be a victim of that superstar
1000 yard stare...
(Cover my eyes)
I wish they'd know...
(I don't care what's going on...)
I wish they'd know...
(Yeah the same thing's going on...)

Lyrics are pretty much off, but such a badass band who cares....saw em open for Queensryche in 2000....was an instant fan.....awesome guys, awesome band.

Second record is Blue in the Face not 11:59 ... Got my wires crossed thanks for the correction man ...

[Torn015]

I still listen to both these records ... They have moved on to other things but i would have been fine with a new DoubleDrive record every couple of years ...A band that deserved alot more respect when they were together but no label knew what they had since this record is mca and i believe 11:59 is roadrunner

Love the song! Thought that the lyrics were a little different.. (Coming from a sniper's standpoint.) Still sing certain lyrics the way I "thought" they were. Salutes to our soldiers, and God bless them to keep their 1000 yard stare!
