lyrics

Well, you’re such a hard little worker always busy as a bee
You can’t see me through my hazy fog of mediocrity
Though I know that I’m not doing all I know that I could do
I am on my knees and begging for some patience out of you.

Well, you’re such a good little mother with your apron and your strings,
And you nursed us from the breast, then you let us spread our wings
We all flapped and we all flew except the one who took a fall
Now I am on my knees and begging for some patience from you all

Well, I’m such a hard-headed, heavy-handed, dragon-hearted girl
But this world is still my oyster, and this life is still my pearl
But it won’t gleam and glow like moonlight while it’s sitting on the shelf
So as anxious as you are, I have less patience with myself.

Oh the moon is beating gently as the ocean softly roars
And I’m terrified of all that I might find beyond these doors
But I will never reach horizon if I’m chained here to this shore
And I think I’ll go insane if I stay here anymore

Well, I’ve drowned my tears in wine, and in my tonic and my gin
But at the end of every day, I am still covered in my sin
And I have longed to walk in freedom but I’m bound still in my shame
So won’t you speak me words of wisdom if you’ve ever felt the same.
