Patterns-Deja Vu

[ti:Patterns] [ar:Deja Vu] [al:A Tribute to Music Legend Paul Simon Vol. 2] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Patterns - Deja Vu [00:17.59]The night sets softly [00:18.64] [00:19.25]With the hush of falling leaves [00:20.74] [00:24.84]Casting shivering shadows [00:26.41]On the houses through the trees [00:27.93] [00:31.74]And the light from a street lamp [00:33.58]Paints a pattern on my wall [00:35.17] [00:38.91]Like the pieces of a puzzle [00:40.07] [00:40.70]Or a child's uneven scrawl [00:42.88] [00:47.07]Up a narrow flight of stairs [00:49.07]In a narrow little room [00:50.28] [00:54.37]As I lie upon my bed [00:55.66] [00:56.38]In the early evening gloom [00:57.64] [01:01.52]Impaled on my wall [01:02.51] [01:03.45]My eyes can dimly see [01:04.58] [01:08.80]The pattern of my life [01:10.64]And the puzzle that is me [01:13.15] [01:17.08]From the moment of my birth [01:18.84]To the instant of my death [01:20.15] [01:24.10]There are patterns I must follow [01:25.85]Just as I must breathe each breath [01:27.57] [01:31.19]Like a rat in a maze [01:33.38]The path before me lies [01:34.56] [01:38.42]And the pattern never alters [01:39.59] [01:40.40]Until the rat dies [01:42.66] [02:03.13]And the pattern still remains [02:04.88]On the wall where darkness fell [02:06.27] [02:10.26]And it's fitting that it should [02:11.97]For in darkness I must dwell [02:13.46] [02:17.30]Like the color of my skin [02:19.00]Or the day that I grow old [02:20.66] [02:24.58]My life is made of patterns [02:25.88] [02:26.44]That can scarcely be controlled
