Patient Hope In New Snow

[Intro]
All right
All right

[Verse 1]
The heat comes in distant shifts
To fill up my room
It spills out of these ancient vents
To meet the new cold
And I lay in my twisted sheets
And stare out at the snow
Still thinking of the next few months
My cold and lifeless eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
No, I've never felt so separate
And then there's you
But that's so obvious
So I'll just say it

[Chorus]
It's hopeless and I know this
That's why I can't dream
No desire or circumstance
Keeps it from me
Keeps it from me
Keeps it
Keeps

[Verse 2]
One by one, to department stores
We walk through the aisles
In a forest of designer clothes
You touch me and smile
And, oh, for a moment
I could want nothing
Your bright eyes burn through
My exploding heart

[Pre-Chorus]
So we stand
As the shoppers pass us
And for once (And for once)
I can feel (I can feel) a touch complete
And I need it

[Chorus]
And I need to just be near you
And fill these empty eyes
You start turning as resistance pulls you
From my cold and boring life
We'll make it easy, let time pass
As devotion dies, the list goes on and on
What differences I'm making
And I've waited for the times to cure the fear
(To cure the fear)

[Outro]
To cure the fear
