Fervent Disposition

from In the Arms of a Goldfinch by Christa Wilcox

/

lyrics

I reach into my pocket and find a cough drop and 64 cents
I haven’t been home in a while and the mess is starting to add up
And time spent moving forward now seems like time well spent
Cause the longer my fingers are idle, the more they become stuck

And my heart is always aching for the year before
When will it stop its breaking, and just ache for now

And this fervent disposition won’t go away
I’ve kept the marks that made me even if I’ve changed

And if I find that my road starts to bend
I won’t ask if I have to I’ll just ask when

I reach into my pocket and find a cough drop and 64 cents
Haven’t been myself in a while and the mess is starting to add up
