Mostly Patient

[Verse 1]

What's inside that cloudy little head?

C'mon, won't you stretch it out?

Afraid they'll really see ya

And figure what you're all about

Everybody knows

You're as perfect as the roses in the ground

You don't see that though

You're so busy on your own little cloud

[Chorus]

Sometimes impatient, but mostly patient

I see you waiting for things to change

Outside, it's raining, precipitating

I know you're aching for better days

[Bridge]

Tried all your tricks

It won't fix anything this time

Got your eyes on the prize

Like a bird looking for sunshine

[Verse 2]

What's behind that frowning little face?

Sometimes you wanna throw it all away

Hope that you don't mind me saying

I think that would be a waste

When you're feeling like a stone

Skipping on your own across the waves

So lonely in the zone

I think you oughta give yourself a break

[Chorus]

Sometimes impatient, but mostly patient

I see you waiting for things to change

Outside, it's raining, precipitating

I know you're aching for brighter days
