Lyrics

Portland Basement

Well the sky bleeds rain on everyone
I picked you up out of the gutter and I walked you home
I can tell by your scars that you know pain
I can tell by your eyes that you need this rain

I laid you down in your basement and kissed your head
You came to as I walked away, and this is what you said,
“why do we cheer at births, and cry at funerals?
Is it because we aren’t the ones involved?”

In this haze I can see the halos around everyone
You always said you didn’t have the patience for that kind of love
But patience ain’t something you either have or do not have
Patience is something you either use or do not use my friend
