bint - patience please lyrics

Loading...

i’m writing first to make amends
for youthful fame and sudden friends
who share such nice advice and bear you dividends

typeset a letter, jerry, i’m not the sort of soul beset by
the worn and weary words i wrote you last time

she’s riding on a northen train
across new england in a day
to fit in her first grade dress for the hermit of cornish

she’s writing from the interstate
“now new haven has to wait”
you followed him as he led
yeah, you knew just where you were headed

with every whisper and caress he, he would say
you were zooey, you were esme
ba*ba*ba
looking back, were you growing up old?
to be so beautiful when and still do what you’re told?

tell yourself that tortures someday passed
every member of the family glass
your psycho*single cast away at the first chance
he tells you “i couldn’t have made up a character of a girl i’d love better than you”
and it’s the world that’s gone corrupt
dismiss this act of disrespect
i lack in tact to recollect
your story’s storied start and stop short of the worst part

but there’s something in the way you laughed
at all your letters crossing paths
you knew that a “landsman” was the same as “one of us”

you can sue me, come arrest me when i say
you were zooey, you were esme
ba*ba*ba
looking back, were you growing up old?
to be so beautiful and still do what you’re told?
to be in the world and still not be at home?

- patience please lyrics
