patience of mind (rewrite 1)


all the secrets of my past
that I never knew
remain a mystery
after all I've gone through
I guess it doesn't matter
whatever I do
I've tried everything I could
I've been to the doctor
I've been to the priest
I've paid my repentance
to the deceased
I've made my decision
I'm looking for peace
but it don't do me no good

          but still I keep searching
          still I keep hunting
          looking for something
          I don't know what I'll find
          I don't know where
          but I know it's around here
          I need patience of mind
          patience of mind

all the traumas of my youth
where did they go
they keep hanging around
why? I don't know
they live inside my actions
hide above and below
I cannot hide from their fighting
they murmur inside me
they don't speak the truth
they capture my courage
with whatever they do
an eye for an eye
and a tooth for a tooth
the fire inside me is lightning

          but still I keep searching
          still I keep hunting
          looking for something
          I don't know what I'll find
          I don't know where
          but I know it's around here
          I need patience of mind
          patience of mind
