Suffer The Fools

(album: DOVE - 2018)

You keep my key and my lazy letters
I'll keep the angel that you bought to watch over me
I know you thought that we'd be living together
I thought so too

So hit your heart's side harder
Pretend that all is lost, that is not
Just keep it up, keep on pissing me off
You know, I'd still rather suffer you than suffer the fools

I'll still come by
I'll bring that terrible wine you love
I'll cut your hair and deadhead your garden
Build up a fire and pick up the flowers that you threw
Cause that's what we do
That's what we do

Race you down the block and through time together
Throw you over my shoulder, we'll cross the line together
Fingernails leave trails on the table that we bought when we thought we'd be living together

We circle each other like twin stars
You stay in my orbit and I stay in yours
Cause I'd rather suffer you than suffer the fools
Suffer the fools

I'll still come by
I'll bring that terrible wine you love
I'll bring the book I've been trying to get you to read
Call off the dogs and pick up the letters you threw
Cause that's what we do
That's what we do

I'll still come by
I'll bring that terrible wine you love
I'll cut your hair and deadhead your garden
Build up a fire and pick up the flowers that you threw
Cause I'd rather suffer you
I'd rather suffer you
Than suffer the fools

(That's what we do)
