lyrics

Small points high up above you
I can’t get any colder than right now
Patient waiting, it makes you stronger
I can’t wait any longer than right now

Because the future’s taking longer than it should
I wish you would’ve loved me when you could
The future’s taking longer than it should

We bet the house on the broken fixtures
I can see it all come tumbling down
Your certain living, your silver spoon
I want it all
Your way of life it hunts me down

Because the future’s taking longer than it should
I wish you would’ve loved me when you could
The future’s taking longer than it should
I still kinda think we had it good
I wish you would’ve loved me when you could
I still kinda think we had it good

You can pull my hair out fast
I know I won’t last

Small points high up above you
I can’t love more than right now
