Who Am I?

38th Parallel

Made like a mirror to reflect his glory
But the glass got smashed, 
bought a counterfeit story 
We gave into pride 
Sacrificed life, on that day we died inside
Outside we ignited a rebellion, 
An infectious disease that labels us felons 
Cold and alone, 
ever wandering in search of a home 

Refrain:
Hearts breaking and shaking 
in time with our hearts vibrating 
We say bridges to yesterday are burned 
Seasons over, all those leaves have turned 
But we cannot look now 
We can only keep our gaze locked on the ground 
And here we stand with wide eyes 
as our world comes crashing down 

Chorus 
Who am I to say right ? 
Who am I to say you’re wrong ? 
Play judge, look you in the eye, 
Who am I to throw the stones 

I remember when trust went for free 
Sold for a smile on the face of a fantasy 
Truth found her home in the pages of fairy tales 
Decadent words formed the phrases for dreams that failed 
Now trust is a costly commodity 
Giving it away is the mark of absurdity 
And truth is a homeless traveler 
Hoping in the night to be found 

Chorus 

And we wave goodbye to our innocence 
And we wave goodbye to our ignorance 
And we wave goodbye to our nursery mindsets 
Abandoning cribs of complacence

Chorus
