A groan of tedium escapes me
Startling the fearful
Is this a test? It has to be
Otherwise I can't go on
Draining patience, drain vitality
This paranoid, paralyzed vampire act's a little oldBut I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right hereBut I'm still right here
Giving blood, keeping faith
And I'm still right hereWait it out
Gonna wait it out
Be patient (wait it out)If there were no rewards to reap
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away by nowGonna wait it outIf there were no desire to heal
The damaged and broken met along
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away by nowAnd I still may, I still mayBe patient
Be patient
Be patientI must keep reminding myself of this
I must keep reminding myself of this
I must keep reminding myself of this
I must keep reminding myself of thisAnd if there were no rewards to reap
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here
I certainly would've walked away by now
And I still may
And I still may
And I still may
And IGonna wait it out
Gonna wait it out
Wait it out
Gonna wait it out
