“It’s Amazing” (later titled The Maze on A Black Mile to the Surface) is the second track on The Black Mile Demos. Lyrically, it revolves around lead singer Andy Hull’s baby daughter Mayzie, and his fatherhood.
The song is split into two halves, with the first three verses being Mayzie speaking to...
I notice you when you're noticing me
Breaking the habit, you're watching me sleep
Give me some time, let me learn how to speak
I'm a maze to you
I never mind about bothering you
I'm trying to decide if I'll bother with you
So, feed me your wisdom and breathe me your truth
I'm amazing
Wish me a wonder and wish me to sleep
You don't have to wander to hear when I speak
There is nothing I've got when I die that I keep
It's amazing
Somebody said it's unspeakable love
Somebody said it's unspeakable love
But you don't believe I can speak well at all
You're a maze to me
First of a thousand to write on the wall
It's only beginning, it's swallowing us
Somebody said it's unspeakable love
It's amazing
It’s Amazing was written by Andy Hull.
Manchester Orchestra released It’s Amazing on Fri Jun 29 2018.
