Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Running outside the Nazca Lines
You know I see you all in white
Hoping you'll grow the fruitful vines
And I'll rain to give us life
[Verse 2]
Violence born within my mind
I know it always takes its time
Climbing inside the cosmic eye
And forgive the enemy
[Verse 3]
I wonder who I am
Reflections offer nothing
I wonder where I stand
I'm afraid of myself
[Verse 4]
Watching you crumble to the ground
Made me want to run away
Helping you find the golden crown
Made it easier to stay
[Verse 5]
I wonder who I am
Reflections offer nothing
I wonder where I stand
I'm afraid of myself
[Verse 6]
At the bottom of the mountain
Well aware of my surroundings
Separation from the spirit
Let the trees fall where they may
[Verse 7]
I wonder who I am
Reflections offer nothing
I wonder where I stand
I'm afraid of myself
