Around the World

Everything is given, nothing is due to you And you know that what you know Is only ever what you've been shown Worry, fear and anguish around the world God knows I've seen it consume our hearts, Chase them in caves and dig in graves, the dust We're doomed just like a dragon It's all for nothing, we're on our own, all alone But I've seen the streaks of clarity in the raindrops, through the frost And I've seen you bend your will dew(?*) like the river around the rocks And in the world, the sky has always held you found and lost, Where you can sing your new song, your blue jay song, your rooster cuckoo And you will have the dignity of the dragon breathing fire Where you will have your new voice Go light (?*) God knows you're grateful to be alive
