"Patterns" is a song written by Paul Simon and included on his 1965 album The Paul Simon Songbook, and later recorded by Simon and Garfunkel on their third album, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme. The lyrics are about how life is a labyrinthine maze, following patterns that are difficult to unravel or control although we are trapped in them.

Warrel Dane included a heavy metal cover of the song on his 2008 album Praises to the War Machine.
