    Lyrics:
    It careened and crashed while the other waved
    And you waited in the sun so long that when you only wanted shade
    Let the old men laugh let the old men say
    That I’ve never done nothing that wasn’t out of love baby
    Now the weight that you carry seems such a heavy load while you’re
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    Remember standing in the light
    Remember crawling all the way
    You paraded in the nighttime for a clean get away
    You were standing in the water but only up to your knees
    But you know a strong current could always sweep you off your feet
    You were waiting for the right time
    But can it take so long while you’re
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    You were flowing blind
    When they stole your name
    You were planning a way out
    When you lost your way
    Bent to a hunch now
    Like a broke down show
    Face down in the moment just a waiting to let go
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    Keep waiting
    Keep waiting
    Keep waiting
    You keep waiting on the night
    You keep waiting on your pain
    Every moment that you wait now is a moment slipped away
    I think you’re gonna have to come out and face all the fear you can’t explain
    All your life you’ve been face done and now it’s time for you to see
    All your life you’ve been face done and now it’s time for you to see
    All your life you’ve been face done and now it’s time for you to see
    SEE IT
    SEE IT
    SEE IT
    SEE IT
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go
    Face down in the moment waiting to let go

      Lots of great music out there but digging deeper than ever to find it. But yeah mainstream is worse than ever. Glad these guys are getting the attention they deserve. I've yet to hear a song in their entire discography that I need to skip. Always changing, always something new and yeah...I don't have only one favorite band but these fuckers are definitely one of them👌🍻

    Heard this song for the first time this morning on my way to work. I cried and listened to it over and over for 25 minutes. Everything in my life right now-mainly work-just seems so hopeless and the harder and more I work it just doesn't seem to pay off and doesn't let up. Everything that makes me happy just gets taken away either by someone or work taking over my life. I'm the boss but we're so short-staffed I have no choice. A vacation just means more work before and after to keep up. What's the point? It just really spoke to me is all, at exactly the right time.

      Me Too K.. I never heard of them before.. before hearing them on a nighttime talk show that is. Their song was soo good I looked them up online and their songs of course (UA-cam is my given) and have it saved with my FAVS. They should go on as many Nighttime and Daytime talks hows as possible and get their name & music known more. They could go farther. They're Good.

    Before I went to rehab and I was drinking constantly, I had trouble looking people in the eyes. I went a long time without making long eye contact with people. Maybe briefly, but I would look away. Or I would focus on other parts of them instead of their eyes.
    It's weird being sober and realizing how long I did this.
    The lyrics made me think of this.

    The first time i heard this song was when they played as a guest on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last week, i got up and was about to leave my hotel room for work when they started playing and i just had to sit back down to listen to their whole performance. That was probably the best 5 minutes I've ever spared in my life.
    This song has been stuck with me since, reminding me to always spare a couple of minutes to look back in life for i might have just missed something amazing for always being in a hurry.

Right then something got in my head and told me to turn the SiriusXM channel to Spectrum. Guess what was playing? This. Guess whom the DJ was that played this? Demos. Faced down in the moment and let go. Universe speaks. Time was 1:27 to 1:30. I took a picture. Then the Police came on. Don't stand so close to me. Blessings to you. I love this .

    Good song - but what's with pronouncing "Moment" as, "MoMUNT"? 🤔
    Nathaniel Rateliff and the SWUTS??? Just strange, every time I hear it
