i’ve never been the patient type
but i’ll keep holding on to
the memory of you until it finally
finds a way to unwind time
i’ve never been a lover of horror
but i’ll keep holding on to
the ghost of you until it finally
finds a way to come back to life
i’ve never been one to reminisce
but i’ll keep holding on to
the image of you until it finally
looks like the love we had before
i’ve never been good with directions
but i’ll keep holding on to
the feeling of you until it finally
leads the old me back home.
