lyrics

I've been creeping crawling
Searching for a light
Running out of breath
Bending over backwards
Kneeling to the sky
Is there anyone left?

I'm just pacing myself
Bracing for the tides
Swimming in the depths
Drowning in my mind
But maybe it's okay to walk to the finish line
Cuz I hear a voice say all the time

Patience
I can feel it coming
Moving slowly
Surely you'll hear it
Sweet whispers
Psalms of nirvana
Take my hand and
I’ll do the honor

Patience
Tell me why you ponder
Wearing yourself thin
With the opposition
Focus only on you're wishing
And it will come back to you

I’ve been racing rampant
Looking for a fire
The smoke is in the air
Tip toeing making sure the way is right
Then running with no care
(I don't care)

My earth quakes
Shatter shifting overnight
Feel it in my soul
The wait might be kind
(So I’ll be still)
And sing a song while I’m waiting by

Patience
I can feel it coming
Moving slowly
Surely you'll hear it
Sweet whispers
Psalms of nirvana
Take my hand and
I’ll do the honor

Patience
Tell me why you ponder
Wearing yourself thin
With the opposition
Focus only on you're wishing
And it will come back to you

Yes
It will come
B-b-b-back
Back to you
(It will come back to you)
If you say what you want
And say it out loud

Just take your time
(Don’t you rush it
Don’t you rush it)
Just take your time
(Don’t you rush it
Don’t you rush it)

Just take your time
(Don’t you rush it
Don’t you rush it)
Just take your time
(And it will come back to you)

If you
Say, say
Yeah, yeah
(It will come back to you)

Just say what you want
Say it now
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh
Yeah
And it will
Come back
To you
To you
