Fan Theories:

The song d.a.f I actually believe is about aliens, this revelation of types came when I was listening and reading the lyrics to this song for the millionth time.
So here we go.
 
"Holding out for a signal to come."

We are all eagerly awaiting and searching for signals of other life
 
"Solution found should appease everyone," 

When contact is made the mystery will be solved and that solution should be fitting for everybody, sceptics and believers alike,
 
"Religion hides from developing truth," 

If there was existence of living beings other than our own the theory of god creating everyone and everything will be proved untrue,
 
"Believers try to encourage the truth," 

Remember seeing numerous episodes of T.V. specials on aliens, there is a whole sub-culture of people believing in aliens, where would the X-Files be without Mulder?
 
"Cascading down golden rays above,

"In the reports of apparent alien abductees the common story is that they are beamed up by long shafts of light coming from a craft above them, these could be seen as golden rays cascading down,
 
"Cascading down life from far beyond,"

 Life from far beyond meaning aliens,
 
"May reveal the silence they deny," 

Again where would the X-Files be without the Cancer Man and his nefarious covering up of the evidence of alien life. Area 51 in Roswell a huge conspiracy of denial. Appearance of aliens would reveal all of this,
 
"Sound and sight and suspicion and fear,"

 If we did see it and hear about we could no longer fear the unknown,
 
"Distant light to so long to appear," 

Basically just means took time for contact but it came,
 
"Fey black eyes mystified everyone," 

Another common report among alien abductees is that of the huge eyes of the aliens and the mystifying effect they had on them, fey also means being in an abnormal state of mind, regarded as heralding death,
 
and finnnaly "But they keep filling up my eyes," 

This could mean the memories are filling up my his eyes or the tears. Or could be another reference to the Aliens eyes, being the only thing he can see

Lyrics:

Holding out for a signal to come
Solution found should appease everyone
Religion hides from developing proof
Believers try to encourage the truth
 
Cascading down golden rays above
Cascading down life from far beyond
May reveal the silence they deny
 
Sound and sight end suspicion and fear
Distant light took so long to appear
Fey black eyes mystified everyone
 
Cascading down golden rays above
Cascading down life from far beyond
May reveal the silence they deny
 
But they keep filling up, keep filling up my eyes
But they keep filling up, keep filling up my eyess
