Once again, I think this is worth the waiting for

Broken down at the start, oh, I'm out of sorts

Once again, I think this is something I ignored

First a horse, then a cart, oh, it's quite a way to learn

All my life is a balance, but it's kind of worn

Less and less on its sleeve as the shirt is torn

Hold my life in the talons where the weight is borne

Just like prey in a trap, oh, it's quite a way to learn

Oh, it's quite a way to learn

When it's all unspoken, can you hear the strain?

When the door swings open, it belies the frame

Check my pulse in the fall for the follow-through

47 months since a new moon

Check the phone when I call, break the solitude

47 months and it's only June

And it's still just only June

Oh, it's quite a way to learn

Oh, it's quite a way to

When it's all unspoken, can you hear the strain?

When the door swings open, it belies the frame

And all I have is a paring knife, a box of clothes

And these tired eyes, have we said the same?

The hypocrisy of all of the above

It's incessantly a test of push and shove

It's an oddity, anomaly, a comedy

Though honestly, it's funny

But it's enough
