Pessimistic Patience
I’d make you a promise but I can’t see to the end
I’ll try to be honest but I don’t think you’d understand
So should I lie or keep quiet?
What’s the point if you just right around the subject line?
What’s it worth if you go in and take every cent I have?
Leave me something to work with ‘cause I’m almost broken
And I’ve had enough of missing out
I’d try to listen but I’m pretty sure its complicated
And I’m just fishing for underhanded compliments
So should I just go back to sleep?
CHORUS
I’ve been patient for a long time, but I guess not long enough
‘Cause there’s something in your eyes that says
“Just wait a little more.”
You’ve been gracious all of my life, but I still forsake your love
Though there’s something in the air that says
“I’ve got all you’re looking for.”
CHORUS
