I Am |
| My fingers are grass |
| My tongue the asp |
| My town a burial mound |
| My eyes are jewels |
| My ears hear fools |
| And I put them down |
| My feet are wings |
| My body sings |
| Without a sound |
| Eyes of blind ignorance |
| See a world of despair |
| Mountains of man |
| Hide cities too deep |
| Cool dark graves where bodies creep |
| My nose is sharp |
| It cuts the glass |
| And then I escape |
| My back is flat |
| Off the beaten track |
| Am a landscape |
| My body and spine |
| They intertwine |
| I am a raging snake |
| I am at peace |
| The feeling’s neat |
| Then suddenly I awake |
| Eyes of blind ignorance |
| See a world of despair |
| Mountains of man |
| Hide cities too deep |
| Cool dark graves where bodies creep |
| I am a waterfall |
| I come tumbling |
| (Tumbling) |
| Tumbling |
| (Tumbling) |
| Down into infinity |
| Down in journey to the sea |
| Down, I rain on leaves and trees |
| On beggars and thieves |
| I am, I am, I am, I am |
| I stand at my window |
| Wind and moonlight |
| Fire my hair |
| I touch the glass |
| It can’t be seen |
| But it’s always there |
| I’m told I’m free |
| And I believe |
| Four walls imprison me |
| Eyes of blind ignorance |
| See a world of despair |
| Mountains of man |
| Hide cities too deep |
| Cool dark graves where bodies creep |
| My fingers are numb |
| My tongue is blunt |
| I am only me |
| My eyes are shallow |
| My ears hollow |
| I am only me |
| My feet are still |
| I’m unfulfilled |
| I am only me |
| My head’s a bed |
| It feels like lead |
| My mind is totally free |
| I must sleep |
| I must sleep |
| I must sleep |
| (A waterfall) |
| I must sleep |
| I must sleep |
| I must sleep |
| I must sleep |
| (A waterfall) |
| Sleep, sleep |
| Sleep, sleep |
