Bright Eyes - Patient Hope In New Show lyrics

rate me

the heat comes in distant shifts to fill up my room

it spills out of these ancient vents to meet the new cold

and i lay in my twisted sheets and stare out at the snow

still thinking of the next few months, my cold and lifeless eyes

I've never felt so separate

and then there's you but that's so obvious

it's hopeless and i know this, that's why i can't dream

no desire or circumstance would keep this from me

one by one, to department stores

we walk through the aisles

in a forest of designer clothes, you touch me and smile

and for a moment i could want nothing

your bright eyes burn through my exploding heart

and we stand as the shoppers pass us

and for once i can feel a touch complete

and i need to just be near you and fill these empty eyes

but you start turning as resistance pulls you from my cold and boring life

let's make this easy and let time pass, as devotion dies,

the list goes on and on

i have waited and i will be waiting for the pain to cure the fear
