Days That Try Your Patience Songtext
von Michael McDermott

The rain, it fell like fi re in Revelations
He was stranded on the outskirts of a dream
He thought about his life and limitations
That kept him here abandoned in between
You′re holding your head high above a dragon
Feel the godless hands pulling you down
It's a struggle to keep your head above the water
It′s a struggle not to let yourself be drowned
These are days, the days that try your patience
The days that love to kick you when you're down
These are days, the days that try your patience
You can only hope by God they'll turn around
The dark clouds, they′ve been looming for a long time
You′ve been waiting for the sun to reappear
Lately it just seems like every morning
The skies just ain't looking very clear
Do you look in the mirror at a stranger
Do you try to keep your dignity intact
You know that the game is far from over
Even though everything seems out of whack


These are days, the days that try your patience
The days that love to kick you when you′re down
These are days, the days that try your patience
You can only hope by God they'll turn around
It′s a struggle not to let yourself be swallowed
Swallowed by the ruthless undertow
You're stranded in this place feeling so hollow
You wanna leave but you don′t know where to go
Are you tired of waiting for something to happen
Waiting for some savior to call
I've wasted so much time it drives me crazy
There's really no time to waste at all
The moonbeams trip the night within its wonder
I caught a glimpse of a new day that I dreamed
There′s forces everywhere that′ll pull you under
And the currents are much stronger than they seem
These are days, the days that try your patience
The days that love to kick you when you're down
These are days, the days that try your patience
You can only hope by God they′ll turn around
You can only hope by God they'll turn around
