Lyrics for Patterns

Patterns all around you, patterns everywhere Patterns of behavior, sometimes seem unfair Can you recognize the patterns that you find? Patterns unfamiliar, patterns lead you through To patterns of discovery, tracing out the clues Can you recognize the patterns that you find? Stuck in your mind In this land where stability is hard to find You can rearrange the patterns so unkind Don't bother asking why a pattern never cries Old patterns never die, they just go on and on Patterns multiplying, re-direct our view Endless variations make it all seem new Can you recognize the patterns that you find? Stuck in your mind In this land where stability is hard to find You can rearrange the patterns so unkind Don't bother asking why a pattern never cries Old patterns never die, they just go on and on
