I Am Mine

I am mine I am my own Said the ancients years ago Apples and pears rotten lie The eulogy itself can write When I heard the man was dead I wondered Do I have a hero that'll stay? He said "I am mine and no others" But I never planned to live that way Cradled hands don't hide your calls I hear them rolling in the walls Calling out toward the wind Asking how to begin again If you're strange Then I would love to meet you I can't go on any other way Been on my own too long to retreat Yeah you're just getting too old to delay But you say "Soon, I will be new Soon, soon Soon I will be new Soon" And if you're strange Then I would love to meet you I can't go on any other way Been on my own too long to retreat And you're just getting too old to delay
