Lyrics

The eagle soars and echoes my name
Cliff face, granite grain
Black stone, shining gem -
Don't want to fall in no devil's den
You're thrown a line, so you hold on tight
So many wonders to be seen
It don't come easy and you work to be free -
There is no guarantee

You're on your own
Trying your best not to fall
You're on your own
Trying to make sense of it all

Golden path, land of dreams
Enchanted kingdom
Not all it seems
Royal realm, rules within
A sacred journey, where to begin?
You could be home tending the fire
You could nothing at all
But if you want to reach for something higher
You gotta scale that wall

You're on your own...

Jagged edge meets the sky
Crystal vision flows on by
As you reach for the stars
Then you find who you really are
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Nothing ever stays the same
You search your soul, as yet untamed,it can bring you pleasure or pain

You're on your own...
