We stand not solitary on this world 
Old songs drum in our veins 
Generations of Man before me 
Nod and speak somewhere inside my words 

HereThey live 
...In my blood

I hear voices in the rich streams of my life 
Cries and sobs, warnings and shouts 
Whispers that know not of their life 
That continues in the corridors of my flesh... 

HereThey live 
...In my blood 

The flash of memory that never happened 
Precognition of the pattern yet to come 
I see the green breast of new world 
The touch of hot sand under my feet

I was not there at the fall of Rome
Yet I taste the sound of the fire 
And detect the sadness of the heart 
That wept when their life fell apart 

HereThey live 
...In my blood
