Lyrics Swallowed - Still Patient?

Swallowed

I ran on wet roads into the night
abandoned by shelters where I used to hide
I was a pipe dream defender in delusive glow
galvanized by the truth in a single blow
all of a sudden I lost the grip
when boundless love did a moonlight flit
all of a sudden I got it straight
when the lie exposes it’s relentless shade
you swallowed me like a little fly
and you spat me out again
you swallowed me like a little fly
and you spat me out
words are portentous if you just believe
there will be no harm unless it comes to grief
token gestures mistaken for love
ringing in the sellout from a view from above
all of a sudden It hardened my heart
when things came together that were miles apart
all of a sudden I locked the door
I found out what you were looking for
you swallowed me like a little fly
and you spat me out again
you swallowed me like a little fly
and you spat me out
I gave you my word
and you threw it back
you threw it back
I gave you my trust
and you swallowed it
you swallowed it
all of a sudden you were out of the game
free to seek another fool to frame
all of a sudden I’m free again
free to choose with whom I am
