Impatience
Embracing Impatience: A Tale of Longing and Temptation
Lyrics
How long do I have to wait?
Expressing frustration about waiting and seeking information on the duration.
Before I can tell you the things I've been wanting to say
Desire to share important thoughts but restrained by the need to wait.
How long must I hesitate?
Questioning the necessity of delaying actions and decisions.
I know it makes sense but it's hard for me to stay away
Acknowledging the logical reasons for waiting but finding it emotionally challenging.
But if this is how it has to be
Contemplating acceptance of the situation, possibly driven by intuition or gut feeling.
Maybe it's just a feeling
Suggesting that the emotion experienced might be difficult to articulate but recognizable.
That I could name
Hinting at an unnamed emotion or feeling that is the root cause of impatience.
But I'd probably best blame...impatience
Blaming impatience as the primary emotion influencing actions or decisions.
You can't miss - what you've never known
Reflecting on the irony of missing something that has never been experienced.
It's quite absurd how you started disturbing me so
Describing the unexpected disturbance caused by a particular person or situation.
Sometimes - when I am all alone
Acknowledging vulnerability and discomfort when alone with one's thoughts.
I lose my senses
Admitting a loss of rational thinking or composure in isolation.
I have no defenses to go
Feeling defenseless and exposed without any means of protection.
But if this is how I lose my heart
Accepting the potential consequence of losing one's heart in this situation.
Then I shall just embrace that
Embracing the emotional intensity and acknowledging the ongoing excitement.
My pulse is racing still
Indicating a heightened heartbeat or emotional arousal.
I'm secretly thrilled
Privately finding joy or satisfaction in the emotional rollercoaster.
By the laughter that tumbled
Recalling moments of both happiness (laughter) and sadness (tears).
And the tears that I spilled
Highlighting the emotional turmoil experienced, with no fatal consequences.
As far as I know no one ever got killed
Emphasizing that impatience, while challenging, is not life-threatening.
By impatience
Reiterating the central theme of impatience as the underlying emotion.
Tell me - is there danger still?
Questioning the presence of danger despite not heeding warnings.
I took no heed so a word might as well be deed
Acknowledging the potential consequences of words, equating them to deeds.
Although - I'd really like to see you now
Expressing a strong desire to meet despite the apparent challenges.
I'm almost certain it can't be accomplished with speed
Expressing skepticism about achieving the desired outcome quickly.
So, if this is how I'll bide my time
Accepting the need to wait and expressing readiness to endure.
Then I will set it down
Committing to wait patiently until caution is no longer necessary.
Til we lose our caution
Anticipating a time when inhibitions are dropped or lost.
I'll honor your order
Respecting and adhering to the order or instructions given.
Cause it's such sweet torture
Describing the emotional experience as simultaneously sweet and torturous.
To carry this torch
Metaphorically carrying the torch of emotion, possibly love or desire.
In the light of temptation
Exploring the challenges presented by temptation and desire in the light.
Beyond conversation and all expectation
Extending the emotional experience beyond ordinary conversation and expectations.
Pausing a moment or two just to mention...
Taking a brief pause to mention the overarching theme of impatience.
Impatience
Reiterating the persistent feeling of impatience.
