Patient

Well I don't know, but I've been told


That you can never get too old


To let new hands feel your heart


And see where it has grown too hard

We can be patient


This situation

Will not destroy us


Will not control us


We can be patient


In this situation,

and you may hate us


But you can't change us

You fell from the apple tree


The one you planted by the stream


The reset button's very close


You're two feet from the telephone


But I see you stare me down


The quiet won't erase this sound

We can be patient


This situation

Will not destroy us


Will not control us


We can be patient


In this situation,

and you may hate us


But you can't change us

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

Slowly breaking,

years of waiting


Slowly breaking

years of waiting


Slowly breaking

your voice above the crowd

We can be patient


This situation

Will not destroy us


Will not control us


We can be patient


In this situation,

and you may hate us


But you can't change us

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh

We're saying no oh oh

no oh oh
