Patron Saint Lyrics

Staring out my window, I see the light
it’s fading
Moving on to shine for someone right
the moment isn’t waiting for me

How ‘bout one more chance, just give me one more day
I promise I’ll have something more to say
Don’t give up on me
How can I make you see…

That I’m the one you need

Pray to my patron saint
Tempted by the endless wait
Father of mediocrity
Humbled now, won’t you absolve me
and wash away all this pain

I’m not like him at all, a victim of the fall
And still the fire burns
On vain desire, the flames rise higher
Take me there, I’ll pay the two-penny fare

Now I’m the one you need

Pray to my patron saint
Tempted by the endless wait
Father of mediocrity
Humbled now, won’t you absolve me
and wash away all this pain

Passing time becomes a haze, endless days thinking of ways

I am thinking of ways to describe my inaction
Clever disguise for dissatisfaction
Convinced I found the key in singularity

Pray to my patron saint
Tempted by the endless wait
Father of mediocrity
Humbled now, won’t you absolve me
and wash away all this pain
