lyrics

The carpet served as your place of comfort.
The grandfather clock did not wake you up.
Our dog she paid no mind as you took her spot in the sun.

You swallowed hard and looked high above me
to roll the tears back inside.
“Please forgive me,” you said through vertigo and
teary glossy eyes.

And I will wait on you.

I watched you roll
back to bed and hit the frame like a violent storm.
I tucked you in.

And I stayed inside
And watched you collide

I did not know which way you went,
but you had made it back unscathed,
though I wore all of your wounds.
Yet I still wait on you.

I watch you roll
back to bed and hit the frame like a violent storm.
I tucked you in.
