We Are What We Are Lyrics

Whatever makes me shiver
And creeping on my way
I'm staying on my path

In all I've ever seen
And all that crossed my heart
I never lost my love

Standing on the mountain
I searched all corners of your place
Till the night came down

I've seen your mothers and your fathers
The world from where you came
But never saw your home

And finally we are what we are
What we will ever be
A life full of science and knowledge
But only as far as we can see
And after all we came a long way
But still the game remains the same
A new world in our hearts and in our dreams
But still too far away

You didn't search the heavens
Burned down the poisoned hope
You did it on your own

You learned the crossing over
Reached this higher place
You've got it all to come

Go, set out for other places you have to go down with the sun
I won't be your shepherd

I won't go along with you
But I'm on your side

Go and tell your heart:
"My hardest path's about to come
Walking on with pride
