patience

Now you see right through me
What took you so long, dear?
I traded all of my cards just to fold at the start
Should've paid more attention in final year

And just like that we're melting
Spaced out
Intertwining without words to interfere
For every way that you break
There's a dent in my state
I take it you don't wanna know me here

Saving without being saved
Is an art to be showcased
The more I paint it
The less I see of you

But I dont hate you
And I won't blame you as much as I want to
Salting mines with the tears on my face
Maybe one of these days we'll be out of this place
I'd sooner be dead than to settle here

Now you hold me hostage
As I found my escape route
Blame the luck of the draw
But I know what I saw
But you know I'd give it all up for you
Yeah you know I'd give it all up for you, still

Fabricated my own sins
Now you're testing my patience
The less I'm fighting
The more I see of you

But I don't hate you
I don't hate you as much as I want to
Salting mines with the tears on my face
Maybe one of these days we'll be out of this place
I'd sooner be dead than to settle here
I'll hold my breath until I disappear
Cos I'd give it all up for you, my dear
