Patient Lyrics by Jo Schornikow

Altar

2022

There's an understanding, I am there for you
In darkest night when all your worst dreams are passing through
You crawl into my bed with guilt and guile and innocence and
All the while, I am waiting
I am waiting, I am patient
You're a dreamer, you're a doctor, you're some kind of visionary
You got a secret language, I understand it
You're creation, I am patient
Won't you come back, baby, don't you know?
Like a spider sheds its skin, you just left clothes
Oh, that's cold
Cold and calling, come on, child
Come on, come in, come down, calm down, comfort style
Cue the balance, cue the bind
Cue the questions
Here's to figuring it all out sometime
Won't you come back, baby, don't you know?
Like a spider sheds it's skin, you just left clothes
Oh, that's cold
When you wanted alive, you know I wanted it
Watch you falling in place and now in front of it
Was on the back of the ropes, so glad I followed you
When you wanted alive, you know I wanted you
Seen the face of the world and felt the hands of pressure
Came out of the void just to press against her
Seen the stars burst and, bird, I got to something new
When you wanted alive, you know I wanted you, too
