You know me by the stories I have made
We cannot see the end so here we must begin
You know me, lookin' out through boxes and cages
Tell me what will we write on these pages?
And it's hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary light
Does the truth filter down through the ages?
Another heart may follow
Breakin' like the ocean, washin' through my hands
And it's hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary light
A chapter, a fable, a line, a trace
Life's open road, showin' only what it wants to show
You know me by the stories I have made
You know me, lookin' out through boxes and cages
Tell me what will we write on these pages?
Does the truth filter down through the ages?
And it's hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary light
Callin' when it's time for us to go
Borders into empty space we write
Does the truth filter down through the ages?
Down through history we race across
We cannot see the end so here we must begin
Runnin' till our spirit's free at least
We cannot see the end so here we must begin
You know me, lookin' out through boxes and cages
We cannot see the end so here we must begin
You know me by the stories I have made
Driven by emotion, pushing from the past
Changin' this old mountain into sand
Tell me what will we write on these pages?
