[Intro - Patience] Wake up, and break down Wake up, and break down [Verse 1 - Patience] I look back to when the only issues I had were those of Rap Pages 4080 or The Source but lately I'm in the last stages My windpipe is exit-only tonight I feel like my own mother wouldn't know me tonight At the sight of werewolf eyes that's lonely but bright Brown vacant, no sweet tooth, I owe you my life Boire de l'eau but I reject it, ring-collar of chalk All we do is talk, no actions for the answers we got And last summer I went crazy It was a change within the arteries that raised me into safety Baby these days lately conversation don't engage me Drain my batteries and you're gonna have to replace me One after the other I lose my functions first my hearing goes Sight, taste, feeling: extremes in ears and toes Sense of smell gone, close my eyes and I'm weak It happens every night, jimmy-leg, go to sleep [Hook - Patience] I wake up every morning to the same thing And break down every evening at the same place I wake up every morning to the same thing And break down every evening at the same place So wake up, and break down So wake up, and break down [Verse 2 - Bender] I feel like I've been spending my days inside an insane asylum Been trying to escape from vaporizing in a basin of Volcano Island I'm counting sheep by leaps and bounds a thousand deep But falling sound asleep is outta reach beyond the clouds and mountain peaks Hell, I'm jealous of your nightmares, I climb stairs to lie there While I stare a dark sky bearing down on me Whole town's asleep but crying out loud like mouths to feed Forgot how to dream, ground my teeth to powder while the hours creep by Mixing a drink to keep that sh** that I think from getting to me Not getting a wink for weeks and now the minute I blink I'm sittin' singing: "Oh, Lord, could this be my time? Lay these bones to rest, bang my head off the table" And finally I roll my eyeballs back I put the night Nytol tab in my highball gla** Sleep finally appears, I hold out my arm to reach 'em Just to hear my alarm clock going off - carpe diem [Hook - Patience]
