Patterns Lyrics - Singles - System Of A Down

Life is a story 

Go ahead and find your sight 

Life is your glory 

Go ahead and live the night 

But to live means to be here 

In the present now 

Do try to bow for the gift of your day 

Then you cede to the morning sun, sun 

Pretending that we live doesn't make us alive 

Life is a story 

Go ahead and find your sight 

But to live means to be here 

In the present now 

Do try to bow for the gift of your day 

Then you cede to the morning sun, sun 

Pretending that we see doesn't give us the sight 

Pretending that we live doesn't make us alive 

What is it that makes us lose sight? 

True sight of what is real and essential 

I'll take organized patterns of chaos 

Over the chaotic organizations of man, any day 

Pretending that we see doesn't give us the sight 

Pretending that we live doesn't make us alive 

Pretending that we see doesn't give us the sight 

(The patterns in the carpet do add up though, 

You don't have to count) 

Pretending that we live doesn't make us alive 

(The patterns in the carpet do add up though, 

You don't have to count)
