Go on, get closer
Lift my arms just how you like
I’m a parcel full of patience
You’ve never known the type
Feeling sheepish all the time now
Dread a knocking on the door
But if they ever come calling
Know you owe them nothing more
Oh, let
Your
Breath
Rise and fall
Can we
Hold
Hands
Through it all
So it feels just a bit
Easier than it’s been
And I won’t
Let
You
Forget
Know I’ll wait for you
Know I’ll wait for you
Oh, I’ll wait for you
Oh, I’ll wait for you

She says you’ll fall in love with many smiles
And it’ll be hard, but not all the time
And there will be things that you cannot change
I’m sorry, there’s no other way
You can take an apple off the tree
Turn and point your finger back at me
Halos and horns, and all that falls between
Looking for the light of what this all means
She says you’ll fall in love with many smiles
And it’ll be hard, but not all the time
And you’ll miss chance, romance, with fears so tall
But you know, the dance requires you to fall
You’ll say goodbye’s you thought you’d never say
I’m sorry, there’s no other way
And it’ll be hard, but not all the time
And it’ll be hard, but not all the time
And it’ll be hard, but not all the time
And it’ll be hard, but not all the time

There’s things I said I’d do
And I’ll feel better when they’re done
The list is long enough
And yet I add another one
The voices say to go
While others say to slow it down
Wouldn’t it be so nice
To just take my time
There’s things I said I’d do
And I’ll feel better when they’re done
I’m finally calm but it’s not long
Before I have to run
I spend my time all alone, never at home
Got my stray eyes set on either coast
Time like sand and I’ve got hands
Of winter stones
There’s things I said I’d do
And I’ll feel better when they’re done
This life they say is good
Lately hasn’t felt so fun
So much tired in my body, I don’t want to leave this bed
Give me room for indecision, give me fantasy instead
Aching in my body, I can’t escape my head
I need time for a decision, not a fantasy again

I can see the lines drawing closer now
Growing up
Deep and dark, clouding out the atmosphere
Windows shut
When’s it gonna get to me?
When’s it gonna get to me?
I wish that I given my apologies
Not enough
Could have held a candle to my barest skin
Avoided us
When’s it gonna get to me?
When’s it gonna get to me?
I can smell the scent of the apple trees
Fill me up
I know that luxury is only for my eyes
Keep em shut
When’s it gonna get to me?
When’s it gonna get to me?
I’ve got a closet full of swords handed over by the ones I love
And one by one, I take them all in my gut
When’s it gonna get to me?
When’s it gonna get to me?
Giving fealty to a god who never made me
I’ve been seeking God in things that make me hate me
My secret sorrow is waiting for the beauty to come
My secret sorrow is waiting for the beauty to come
My secret sorrow is waiting for the beauty to come
