sea sand and stone 
wreath 'round this ground i call my own 
while dark concrete sky 
blacks out the sun with icy night 

even though the ocean roars 
and the storm is bold and the rain is cold 
here i was born 

though winter winds have blown 
and bitter seeds been sown 
i gave you all i am and all i hope to be 
now i am free 

wind fill my frame 
fire me with your immortal flame 

even though i am poor 
through the looking glass i watch unfold 
what can't be told 

chorus 

though fortunes rise and fall 
it's no concern at all 
i gave you all i am and all i hope to be 
now i am free 

even though i am poor 
through the looking glass i watch unfold 
what can't be told 

chorus
