The Patient Mental - Mudvayne

Patient, just as I am
As always
Watch the time go by
Nothing left to pass by
The minutes follow me
Drunken little people
Work away at me
Why, wont the leave me
Leave me alone
When I don't even want me
Want me

I have to
Kill the words
Before they
Form a sentence
A sentence that is me
Judged by those who can't read
The patient sets in cradled love
That doesn't even strengthen

Why wont they leave me
Leave me alone
When I don't even want me
Want me
The patient mental sits and stands
And I don't mind
And I keep
Screaming stay back
Why won't they leave him
Leave him alone
The passive smeared ritual
Driven by your worship
The hate driven in me

They have to
Kill the meal
Before they
Can consume
Consume my inner peace
With out the understanding
Trapped inside the words
The hands are moving me

The patient mental sits and stands
And I don't mind
And I keep
Screaming, stay back
Why wont the leave him
Leave him alone

The passive smeared ritual
Driven by your worship
The hate driven in me

Release me
Let me go

Why do they observe me
There's nothing here to cure
I can see the silhouettes
That's hid behind the mirror
I'm just like a clock upon the wall
Always moving but never going anywhere

The patient mental sits and stands
And I don't mind
And I keep
Screaming stay back
Why wont the leave him
Leave him alone
The patient mental sits and stands
And I don't like what's happening
screaming stay back
The passive smeared ritual
Driven by your worship
the hate driven in me
