Patience
Lost in Love's Decay: Eloise Granville's Patience Unraveled
Lyrics
The cuffs we wore have rusted off my wrists
The restraints we once had have now loosened from my wrists.
I remember we had sworn but promises they never stick
Our promises were made, but they didn't endure or hold.
I'm tired of this old merry-go-round
Feeling weary of the repetitive and tiresome cycle of events.
What used to be exciting just won't stop and now I'm wearing down
What was once exhilarating has become incessant, causing fatigue.
And all the lights were flashing
Recalling a time when everything was vibrant and dynamic.
And I missed the way you'd catch me
Missing the comforting feeling of being caught or supported by someone.
I told you every day I'd think of you
Promising to think of someone every day but questioning the audience or the point of such promises.
But who the hell am I talking to
An expression of confusion and self-reflection regarding communication.
I tried I a thousand times
Repeated attempts to overcome personal challenges and habits.
I'm fighting all my habits by myself
Struggling with personal issues independently without seeking assistance.
'Cause I didn't ask for help
Choosing not to seek help even when it's needed.
Now I've lied a thousand lies
Admitting to telling numerous falsehoods or lies.
We're fading and I've lost my Patience
Acknowledging the fading of something (relationship or patience).
Go ahead and call the cops on me
Challenging someone to take extreme measures due to a perceived transgression.
'Cause I broke into your house but I didn't still anything
Breaking boundaries but asserting innocence regarding theft.
I'm nauseated 'cause I cracked the gate code
Feeling sickened by breaching a personal boundary (gate code).
If you'd ask me I would go 'cause it's better off the less you know
Expressing a willingness to leave, believing ignorance is preferable.
And all the lights were flashing
Revisiting a time of vibrancy, now with someone else involved.
With someone else's arms around me
Feeling the discomfort of physical closeness with another person.
I told you every day I'd think of you
Reiterating the commitment to think about someone daily.
But who the hell am I talking to
Questioning the purpose or audience for expressing these thoughts.
I tried I a thousand times
Repeated attempts to overcome personal challenges and habits.
I'm fighting all my habits by myself
Struggling with personal issues independently without seeking assistance.
'Cause I couldn't ask for help
Choosing not to seek help even when it's needed.
Now I've lied a thousand lies
Admitting to telling numerous falsehoods or lies.
We're fading and I've lost my Patience
Acknowledging the fading of something (relationship or patience).
And it hits me in the car ride that I love you
Realizing love during a car ride but struggling with uncertainty and hypotheticals.
But I can't keep surviving on what-ifs
Difficulty sustaining oneself on uncertain possibilities.
I can imagine if you weren't so far away
Imagining a different scenario if the person was closer geographically.
But I just can't take this
Expressing an inability to endure the current situation.
I told you every day I'd think of you
Reiterating the commitment to think about someone daily.
But who the hell am I talking to
Questioning the purpose or audience for expressing these thoughts.
I tried I a thousand times
Repeated attempts to overcome personal challenges and habits.
I'm fighting all my habits by myself
Struggling with personal issues independently without seeking assistance.
'Cause I couldn't ask for help
Choosing not to seek help even when it's needed.
Now I've lied a thousand lies
Admitting to telling numerous falsehoods or lies.
I don't think that we can save this and I've lost my Patience
Concluding that the situation is beyond repair, and patience has run out.
