Patiently waiting

Patiently waiting for you
Patiently waiting for you
I’m Patiently waiting for you
To get up

Something feels familiar
Shutters closing faces white
Something in his handshake
Crooked grin candlelight
Says he won’t Screw up again
He’s a vagabond untouchable
Then he tells you he needs a friend
Then he tells you you’re beautiful

Patiently waiting for you
Patiently waiting for you
I’m Patiently waiting for you
To get up
To get up

And make yourself obscure enough
To listen to your voice but you reason
The bottle’s empty anyway
So get up
So get up

Trembling in the balance
Folding shirts iron out the lies
You close the door on your daughter’s ears
You hurt you bleed you fantasize
Comatose holding raggyman
Twisting the gold on your left hand
Well get up run away from your feet of clay
Well get up run away from your feet of clay

Run away from your feet of clay
Run away from your feet of clay
Run away from your feet of clay
