Patience

Been good, been bad, got worse, got better.

I feel I know myself when i'm looking in the mirror.

Been hurt, been loved - I'm scarred, not bitter.

I am an angel with the knowledge of a sinner.

But what do I do, and how should I be?

When I look at myself, I can only see me....

I need a little patience...

Been hard, been soft, been both, been neither

Above it all, I am only a survivor.

Been down,been low, got up, got higher -

We are only human, all just liars...

So I wait for the day when I open my eyes

And I look to myself, but it's no big surprise

I need a little patience...

Well i'm sitting here and sinking and i'm on the '8th floor

And i'm thinking do I jump or should I stay around for more?

I watch my friends get bigger and get better and get richer

But i'm not bitter

Time is ticking ticking ticking ticking ticking on with a vengeance

I want it all

I want it all

I need a little patience....
