Patron Saint

Hey you, you're standing in my way

A solid obstacle you make

I want an answer or at least the truth

I try to please you every day

But still it's all that you can say

You want a hit cause you don't want to lose

And as you scream the words out loud

You're trying hard to force a crowd

And should you slice me 'cause I'm just your meat

You could sell me at your store

But you don't want to anymore

I am your used Thanksgiving Day Parade float

Oh, I gotta stop living like I'm not

Yeah you said that you believed in me, but baby I don't know

Oh, I gotta stop pushing it to pop

I don't care about the label 'cause it doesn't mean a lot

Maybe the times have never changed

I'm just a puppet in your game

You're not my Patron Saint if I say so

You can't control me with your words

Despite you're using them like swords

I can't believe I let you get this close

Oh, I gotta stop living like I'm not

Yeah you said that you believed in me, but baby I don't know

Oh, I gotta stop pushing it to pop

I don't care about the label 'cause it doesn't mean a lot

Now I see I let you down but you still won't let me out

Yeah you told me that you needed me it really doesn't show

Oh, I gotta stop living like I'm not

Yeah you said that you believed in me, but baby I don't know

I am last season's mannequin

No longer cute and in fashion

I am the Christmas song that you don't know

I am the summer at the shore

You don't remember anymore

I am the novel that you wish you wrote

Oh, I gotta stop living like I'm not

Yeah you said that you believed in me, but baby I don't know

Oh, I gotta stop pushing it to pop

I don't care about the label 'cause it don't mean a lot

Now I see I let you down but you still won't let me out

Yeah you told me that you needed me it really doesn't show

Oh, I gotta stop living like I'm not

Yeah you said that you believed in me, but baby I don't know

Now I see I let you down but you still won't let me out

Yeah you told me that you needed me it really doesn't show

Oh, I gotta stop living like I'm not

Yeah you said that you believed in me, but baby I don't know
