Mostly Patient
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
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
Tried all your tricks
It won't fix anything this time
Got your eyes on the prize
Like a bird looking for sunshine
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
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
