Demoting the Meaning, Promoting the Subtext

Today slipped away from me
Who knows if I’ll ever get that back 

Not like I needed the hours anyways
for my mental capabilities 

Show me what I’m looking for
Show me what I’m looking for 

The day I understand what’s in my head 
is what I’m living for 

Patience never hurt anyone 
Patience never hurt anyone 
until I realized that the call would never come 

But patience never hurt anyone 

When’s the part where I get to storm out and say
“look who’s still breathing
and giving God a reason to live another day!”

But then I think
some things are better left unsaid 

Patience never hurt anyone 
Patience never hurt anyone 
until I realized that the call would never come 

Today slipped away from me
and who knows if I’ll ever get that back 

Show me what I’m looking for 
Show me what I’m looking for

The day I understand what’s in my head
is the day I’m living for
