The Patient

A groan of tedium escapes me

Startling the fearful

Is this a test? It has to be

Otherwise I can't go on

Draining patience, drain vitality

This paranoid, paralyzed vampire act's a little old

But I'm still right here

Giving blood, keeping faith

And I'm still right here

But I'm still right here

Giving blood, keeping faith

And I'm still right here

Wait it out

Gonna wait it out

Be patient (Wait it out)

And if there were no rewards to reap

No loving embrace to see me through

This tedious path I've chosen here

I certainly would've walked away by now

Gonna wait it out

If there were no desire to heal

The damaged and broken met along

This tedious path I've chosen here

I certainly would've walked away by now

And I still may

I still may

Be patient

Be patient

Be patient

I must keep reminding myself of this

I must keep reminding myself of this

I must keep reminding myself of this

I must keep reminding myself of this

And if there were no rewards to reap

No loving embrace to see me through

This tedious path I've chosen here

I certainly would've walked away by now

And I still may

And I still may

And I still may

And I

Gonna wait it out

Gonna wait it out

Wait it out

Gonna wait it out
