Lyrics

I have no home. I live within my mind
I have no one. no one I'm bringing up to the sky with me

No weapon - I carry no sword, only my hands to protect me
No laws - I obey no laws; my spirit is righteous and free
Her face, the image of a thousand wonders
A bridge between today and yesterday
If I pull her close what will the spirit say?

I have no home. I live within my mind
I have no one. no one I'm bringing up to the sky with me

Her face, the image of a thousand stars
A bridge between tomorrow and today
If we destroy one another, dawn will never break the day

Day breaks, but there is no light
In my mind, a voice calling
Spirit singing, a song of the ages
Depend on today, like father's honor
She has come to take it away!

[Instrumental]

I see - my life has flashed as the star meets my head
Body of an angel, with the strength of ten men;
Through the trees, dark as a raven, black hair flying -
The justice of heaven

I have no home. I live within my mind
I have no one, no one. my spirit is righteous and free
No weapon - I carry no sword, only my hands to protect me
No laws - I obey no laws; without honor, you'll never be free

[Instrumental]
