lyrics

Who am I?
You ask me who am I?

I'm your hand on your belly
Cells dividing in the jelly
I'm the alpha the omega
On a photon all the way from Vega

Who am I?
I ask you who am I?

I'm the birds in the trees
Lookin down at me I'm Columbus on his knees
Crying at the gates of hell
I am all that he can smell

Who am I?

I'm the mountains in the distance
Here in your throat I'm death's insistence
I'm your glassy clouded eyes
Looking through the book of lies
I am you you are me
I'm in prison you are free
