How You Are

[Verse 1] Gone now I keep my distance But still show persistence in trying to find out how you are It’s really testing my patience, watching you waste this Life that you have of yours in a bar And I get the feeling that you’re gonna leave him Cause you just can’t seem to get off You’re so appealing, you can get anyone that you want somehow [Chorus 1] Patience is useless when I’m sober and you’re wasted And you don’t wanna hear it, so go on just leave it [Verse 2] Calm down, can’t we get level? Can’t we be civil? We share a lot of things And yeah, I think back when it was simple Before I had earned some, and all I ever did was sing Been caught under pressure, trying to measure How I feel ‘bout this whole thing You’re so appealing, you can get anyone that you want somehow [Chorus 2] Patience is useless when I’m sober and you’re wasted And you don’t wanna hear it so go on just leave it And I count the times that I’m driving home I’m talking to myself like I’m not alone Trying to figure to out who I’ve been running from Gotta figure out who I’ve been running from [Bridge] I keep my distance now Forcing my jaw to smile I keep my distance now Forcing my jaw to smile [Chorus 2] Patience is useless when I’m sober and you’re wasted And you don’t wanna hear it so go on just leave it And I count the times that I’m driving home I’m talking to myself like I’m not alone Trying to figure to out who I’ve been running from Gotta figure out who I’ve been running from
