Patience

Maria Mena · Mellow [2004]

Damn you,

for trusting me

what's wrong with you

I'll work for nothing else?



Damn you,

for accepting my immaturity

when I scream for silence child,

I'll work for nothing less.



I need patience,

and someone strong enough to hold my breath for me

until the smoke clears.



I need patience,

and time to think before I speak,

for when I'm short of breath,

I tend to lie.



Damn you,

for letting me sleep till noon

and get away with it.

I'll work for nothing less.



Damn you,

for keeping quiet when I like to

I won't work for anything less.



I need patience,

and someone strong enough to hold my breath for me

until the smoke clears.



I need patience,

and time to think before I speak,

for when I'm short of breath,

I tend to lie.



Ahhhhh,

ahhhhh,

aaaah...



I need patience,

and someone strong enough to hold my breath for me

until the smoke clears.



I need patience,

and time to think before I speak,

for when I'm short of breath,

I tend to lie. (2x)
