patience

Folder: 
songs

faced with an honest truth

form your own opinion.

bend a fork and call it new

paint a broken mirror.

 

faced with an honest truth

holding on to feelings

catch a ride and settle through

cancel all your reasons

 

at last, the fear is gone

masks of pain and loss

cracks in vain facade

collapse, running from

 

the pain of loss

the fear of what went wrong

the vain facade

the snare of holding on

 

at last, the pain is gone

i laugh at what went wrong

i sat and sang a song

and i named it "patience."

 

soon everything will end

so wait along

soon all your wounds will mend

so wait along

soon you will find a friend

so wait along

soon will your heart ascend

so wait along

 

soon everything will melt into the sun.
