We are blind in the darkness Crawling on our hands We are born in the sunlight We love the ones we can But nobody knows the way We're just strangers all the same We wait for our luck to change And hope to come We are poets and prophets Defending what we know We are pilgrims and pirates Sailing from our home But nobody knows the way We just watch the seasons change And wait for the storm to break And the land to come We are building our castles to fall And we are fighting with our backs to the wall And we are praying there's a place for us all And we're gonna find it We are travelers and orphans We wander through the streets We are drifters and dreamers Marching to the beat But nobody knows the way We just watch the children play And wait for the song to end And silence to come We are building our castles to fall And we are fighting with our backs to the wall And we are praying there's a place for us all And we're gonna find it We are forests and mountains Climbing from the plains We are rivers and oceans Filling up with rain We are rising and falling Riding on the waves We are pulsing We are all the same We are all the same
