This is where I stand
   This is who I am
   This the way it had to be
   Arrows point in every direction
   Where to turn, seek to learn;
   Lies in the sand of time
   Closing my mind to remember
   But there is nothing to forget
   All I ever had is here, before me
   Open up the opened and collect
   This is the written word
   This is who I am
   This is the extension of the wish;
   Conviction will blossom,
   As failure laughs in my face
   I'll still be waiting for my turn
   Closing my mind to remember
   But there is nothing to forget
   All I ever had is here, before me
   Open up the opened and collect
   Closing my mind to remember
   But there is nothing to forget
   All I ever had is here, before me
   Open up the opened and collect
