We Are What We Are

Following some course unknown, I went walking far from home Uplands sky's midnight hues shimmering, serene, untrue Feeling in my head, too much left unsaid. Strange you never asked me what I've seen Actors speaking verse and rhyme discover truth in storyline Live life off the page, color with chaos, all life's a stage. Fathers, sons, kings, daughters, mothers, queens Vanish. Only a notion, end of scene We are what we are so be what you are and so on Mirage in dark, fading away in the dawn Aurora Borealis, icy sky sublime Nothing lasts forever, hope we got plenty of time Sanctified we sing. Summertime swings panoply of wonder left in dream We are we what we are so be what you are and so on Bodies in motion dancing together then gone North country sky in June, July, season's fast More than a flash moving on separate paths We are what we are so be what your are and so on We are what we are so be what you are and come on Night parade, night parade divine Nothing lasts forever, hope we got plenty of time Nothing lasts forever, hope we got plenty of time
