[Verse]
Arrows fly fast and sharp as they pierce the open air
They are like words that lay our hearts bare
But what if we just slowed down, stood quiet and still
and let the silence guide our will
[Chorus]
Patience breaks the bow in two
Tolerance softens different views
While anger flickers out like a fleeting spark
Leaving no shadows in the dark
[Verse 2]
Grudges can't be held in open hands
They'll slip away like water or like shifting sands
When you see the heavy weight they bear
It’s impossible to stay unaware
[Chorus]
Patience breaks the bow in two
Tolerance softens different views
While anger flickers out like a fleeting spark
Leaving no shadows in the dark
[Bridge]
Tolerance and anger can't pretend
They'll never dance
they'll never blend
So breathe in deep let the storm subside
Feel the calm in your heart like a rising tide
[Chorus]
Patience breaks the bow in two
Tolerance softens different views
While anger flickers out like a fleeting spark
Leaving no shadows in the dark
Be patient
Be tolerant
Be kind and loving
