There's always been something in me, that speaks so softly
It wakes me gently, and keeps me waiting
It drains me empty, and kills me slowly, if and only if I start giving up
If I get tired, will you come pick me up
I've been waiting patiently, for what you've given up
If I could live life more slowly, and figure out all it could be
But I always run back to safety, because I've just had enough
When you're here with me, you can put your guards away
I hope you understand that I told you everything
I've been waiting patiently here, but I've seen better days
I've seen better, I've seen better days, I've seen better
I've seen better days, I've seen better, I've seen better days
