tolerate it

[00:22.02] I sit and watch you reading with your head low

[00:30.06] I wake and watch you breathing with your eyes closed

[00:38.06] I sit and watch you, I notice everything you do or don't do

[00:47.32] You're so much older and wiser and I

[00:51.87] I wait by the door like I'm just a kid

[00:58.12] Use my best colors for your portrait

[01:02.62] Lay the table with the fancy shit

[01:06.87] And watch you tolerate it

[01:10.87] If it's all in my head tell me now

[01:14.65] Tell me I've got it wrong somehow

[01:18.75] I know my love should be celebrated

[01:23.28] But you tolerate it

[01:26.28] I greet you with a battle hero's welcome

[01:34.07] I take your indiscretions all in good fun

[01:42.32] I sit and listen, I polish plates until they gleam and glisten

[01:50.87] You're so much older and wiser and I

[01:56.17] I wait by the door like I'm just a kid

[02:02.50] Use my best colors for your portrait

[02:07.00] Lay the table with the fancy shit

[02:11.00] And watch you tolerate it

[02:14.75] If it's all in my head tell me now

[02:18.25] Tell me I've got it wrong somehow

[02:22.75] I know my love should be celebrated

[02:27.00] But you tolerate it

[02:31.05] While you were out building other worlds, where was I?

[02:34.34] Where's that man who'd throw blankets over my barbed wire?

[02:38.34] I made you my temple, my mural, my sky

[02:42.58] Now I'm begging for footnotes in the story of your life

[02:46.83] Drawing hearts in the byline

[02:49.83] Always taking up too much space or time

[02:54.08] You assume I'm fine

[02:56.08] But what would you do if I

[03:02.11] Break free and leave us in ruins

[03:06.36] Took this dagger in me and removed it

[03:10.67] Gain the weight of you then lose it

[03:14.95] Believe me, I could do it

[03:19.20] If it's all in my head tell me now

[03:22.79] Tell me I've got it wrong somehow

[03:26.54] I know my love should be celebrated

[03:30.85] But you tolerate it

[03:46.10] I sit and watch you
