Lauren Auder For Those Who Patiently Endure
I left my heart in my ankle
When that car hit, when that car hit
I kept your guilt in my pocket
Where you left it, where you left it
You were drunk, out of control
But now you're married, it all feels so old
When you fed me to the floor
I searched for God but I'm not so pure
For I know I'm love's job
And this I fear I do adore
For I know I'm love's job
And this I fear I can't ignore
When our vessels come together
We never think they'll fall apart
And though we said it'd be forever
We must look back and just laugh
[?]
Searching for something my parents have
This body will perish, for this I'm glad
The infinite and the eternal in both my hands
My internal self fails to understand
But I met it in arms over seas
Curious for what I've overseen, what I'll take with me
Some say we're all pawns in a game
I refute this till my jaw goes lame
This is for those who knew there was more
This is for those who patiently endure
This is for those who felt there was more
This is for those who patiently endure
