Well Modesty is Dead
It's been replaced with arrogance
There is no compromise
No halfway house
For anyone to rest
And if patience is a virtue
Then this world is steeped in sin
There's no individual
No institution that
Escapes this mess and wins
I'm losing the balance
Between caring and care free
There's to much pressure
To much value placed
On these dictated currencies
If patience is a virtue what's the point in urgency
Yeah if patience is a virtue what's the point in urgency
Slow Down
Slow Down
Slow Down
Slow Down
No thanks
It's just a moment on the lips
But then a lifetime in the shit
Sticks and Stones only break bones
But the wrong words could break the world
I am searching for a balance
Between caring and care free
Everyone has there own opinion
And yours means everything to me
(Everything to me)
Patience is not a virtue so let's end this fallacy
Patience is not a virtue if we close our eyes we'll see
We'll see
We'll see
We'll see
That there is nothing out on the horizon
There is nothing polluting the sky
There is nothing hiding out in these dark corners
There is nothing here but you and I
There are search lights scanning thoughts for fugitives
There are defences keeping riots at bay
There are moments of definition and clarity
There's devotion and there's positive sides
So come away
Come away
Come away from the edge of the day
So come away
Come away
Come away from the edge of the day
