Lyrics Take A While - Pati Yang

Take A While

Hold me.
Like you’ve held no one before
Talk to me as if we’ve been far apart
It’s like we mutate and it’s out our control
Everywhere we look change stare us in the eye
Oh it’s so hard to walk with it
But we’ve got to believe it
Make efforts to go with the flow
See, I am trying to resist it
When I am tempted to give up
You make me carry on
It’s gonna take me a while
To deny
That I am fine
When I feel half alive
Tears taste much sweeter with time
If I could I would cry
Rain o the dessert inside
Pressure
Holds me on my feet all night
I sleepwalk on eggshells in the day
Comfort hurts me more the more I drown
We feel numb, we talk numb
Just used to being deprived
Oh it’s so hard to walk with i
But we’ve got to believe it
Make efforts to go with the flow
See, I am trying to resist it
When I am tempted to give up
You make me carry on
It’s gonna take me a while
To stop laying.
That I am fine
When I feel half alive
Tears taste much sweeter with time
If I could I would cry
Rain on the dessert inside
I was the only child you’ve ever had
You found me
Then lost me
In your labyrinth
Of sweets and promises of childhood dreams reversed
Why none of them, signed in blood
Could have kept me safe?
