Penelope Lyrics by Anferneewc

What Took You So Long?

2025

(Verse 1)

I'm a tortoise just running a race
But I just run in place
I feel stuck in space
Heartbeat at 90 for the pace
B-P-M M-P-H
It hit me in the face
When I saw your face

My jaw dropped, I tripped up, and I felt disgrace
Embarrassed, resolving to anger, my feelings are displaced
Our love is now misplaced
Our energy shifting shape
What gets to me are mistakes

I feed into so often
I choose to carry the weight
I know this isn't okay
I need to better myself
Decided love is the way
I don't have much else to say
Except its give and its take
You develop everyday

You pour into each other
Make it an even display
You don't do it for others
For validation and claims
You proclaim what you're worth
And you affirm it each day
You've gotta build yourself up
It might help you out to pray


(Hook)

I love you, I love you

I'm learning how to love me
I'm learning how to love me

(Verse 2)

I've been fighting with myself
And knowing I'm the softest
I tap into that spirit
That's when I feel most Godly
I know I am a prophet
But really I want comfort
I want to be more gentle
And be more sentimental
But sometimes I know love hurts
But it doesn't have to
You work to make it work
By making every effort
And trying to be sure of
Your faith and that its certain
And that you're always worth it
To reach your higher purpose

(Verse 3)

I'm running through circles
And jumping them hurdles
I am the loneliest turtle
Becoming spoiled and curdled
I've dove into the darkness
Thought I was better as heartless
Things that kept me as guarded
Remind me I am a monster
Push me away from my lover
Under the shadows I'm covered
Running away from myself
Slowly collapse I need help
Dirt diving into my shoes
I have a path I must choose
Your love I don't want to lose
My failures I should let loose


(Bridge)

You keep my heart be going

You've got me screaming singing

(Hook)

I love you, I love you

I'm learning how to love me
I'm learning how to love me

(Outro)

Love is the key, to closing the casket
