Patient Hope In A New Show
The heat comes in distant shifts to fill up my roomIt spills out of these ancient vents to meet the new coldAnd I lay in my twisted sheets, and stare out at the snowThinking of the next few months, my cold and lifeless eyesNo, I've never felt so separateThen there's you, but that's so obviousIt's hopeless and I know this, that's why I can't dreamNo desire or circumstance keeps it from me
One by one, to department stores, we walk through the aislesIn a forest of designer clothes, you touch me and smileAnd know for a moment, I could want nothingYour bright eyes burn through my exploding heartWe stand as the shoppers pass usAnd for once I can feel a touch complete
I need to just be near you and fill these empty eyesYou start turning as resistance pulls you from my cold and boring lifeLet's make this easy and let time pass, as devotion diesThe list goes on and onI have waited, and I'll be waiting for the pain to cure the fear
