Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I woke up
In the middle of the night
I called out
I called your name
[Verse 2]
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
[Verse 3]
I called out
Why do I dream so often
Of his body when
His body will decay?
His flesh will be fluorescent gray
His flesh will be fluorescent gray
[Verse 4]
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
[Verse 5]
You were my god
You were my god
In high school
[Verse 6]
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
He let me down
[Verse 7]
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
[Verse 8]
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
Patiently, patiently
