Patience - Cory Wells

Can’t escape this endless cycle

It won’t stop spinning in my head

And every night you somehow lure me right back to this regret

And I hold my tongue, you cut it out, and I can’t accept

I just can’t accept this

And you close the window tonight

The cold still settles in

And I cover up and you see right through my argument

And all the while you sit and wonder where I’ve been

Can’t seem to make this go away

This never-ending price I pay

And I’ve got hope for this, 'cause I know, somehow, I’ll see the light of day

And every time I wake I’m thinking of you

Don’t leave it up to me, or I’ll close my eyes for good

Sometimes I wish I could

Sometimes I think I should

Can’t escape this endless cycle

Stop fucking with my head

All of my patience running thin but I can’t outrun all of my sin

And my heart won’t leak cement, but I’ll say it did

And I take it all

You just break it off

Still not giving up

Can’t seem to make this go away

This never-ending price I pay

And I’ve got hope for this, 'cause I know, somehow, I’ll see the light of day

And every breath I take I’m thinking of you

Don’t leave it up to me, or I’ll hold my breath for good

I just wish you knew I would

I just wish you understood

Can’t escape this endless cycle that won’t stop spinning in my head

And every night you somehow lure me right back to this regret

And I hold my tongue, you cut it out, and I can’t accept

Why won’t you forget?

I want to forget
