Mudvayne - The Patient Mental lyrics

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 in me

Why won't they leave me, leave me alone
When I don't even want me, want me

I have to, kill the words
Before they form my sentence
The sentence that is me
Judged by those that carry
The patient sit's in cradled arms
That comfort me by strangling

Why won't they leave me, leave me alone
When I don't even want me

The patient mental sit's and stares
An idle mind that's empty, screaming
Staring back
Why won't they leave him, leave him alone
A passive speared ritual
Drive by our war shipthe hate driven envy

They have to kill the meal
Before they can consume
Consume my inner peace
Without the understanding
Trapped inside the works
The hands are moving me

The patient mental sit's and stares
An idle mind that's empty, screaming
Staring back
Why won't they leave him, leave him alone
A passive speared ritual
Drive by our war shipthe hate driven envy

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

The patient mental sit's and stares
An idle mind that's empty, screaming
Staring back
Why won't they leave him, leave him alone
A passive speared ritual
Drive by our war shipthe hate driven envy
