Patience is a painful gift
What a shame to wait
Patience, you aren't leaving any time soon
Sweatshirt off and bed unmade
Calm and cheerful
Boy, you're giving me an earful
All about the rotten fits of haste
So patience please, you have brought me to my knees
Forditude and weakness all in spades
My lesson's in the lines
Time, we want more time
Time, we want more time
Patience claims sleep it off for one more stale day
In the morning wake up feeling new
But there's a mark on my neck
It's the one your lips had left
And it's beating softly with my pulse
Congruent to the shape of your swingin' home state
A token of last night care of the midwest
My lesson's in the lines
Time, we want more time
Time, we want more time
And I'm damaged by design
Time, we want more time
Time, we want more time
Patience mentioned that I was kinda well-intentioned
Although it might not come across that way
So thank your muse, share some gentle praise from me too
I'll be right here when she fades
