Pages

verse Yesterday's wars stack up like old papers on the floor Pounding like old knocks upon my door Breaking like the ocean, washing through my hands Changing this old mountain into sand You know me by the stories I have made You know me by looking out through boxes and cages And it's hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary light Does the truth filter down through the ages outro 1 We cannot see the end so here we must begin Tell me, what will we write on these pages? verse Life's open road, showing only what it wants to show Callin' when it's time for us to go Driven by emotion, pushing from the past Runnin' till our spirit's free at last You know me by the stories I have made You know me by looking out through boxes and cages And it's hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary light Does the truth filter down through the ages outro 1 We cannot see the end so here we must begin Tell me, what will we write on these pages? bridge Down through history we race across Borders into empty space we write A chapter of fable, a line, a trace Another heart may follow You know me by the stories I have made You know me by looking out through boxes and cages And it's hard to clearly see what's right in ordinary light Does the truth filter down through the ages outro 2 We cannot see the end so here we must begin Tell me, what will we write on these pages? We cannot see the end so here we must begin Tell me, what will we write on these pages?
