lyrics

KNOWING.

He called out to sea; 'will I ever be king?'
The Oracle she spoke; 'you will conquer all the world'.
How did he deal with knowing?

A cold hearted Queen had her trusted adviser.
But she too would seek consult in a higher power.
How would she have ruled without it?

Their strive for greatness had its price.
And their sacrifice it runs throughout humankind, and time.

Chorus
Some hear the drum of their calling and their station.
When their time comes, they'll be ready and a waiting.
But how do they deal with knowing?

The elements that sing out from the stars through the ages.
The lone riding warriors with their lessons from the sages.
How do they deal with sowing?

Their strive for greatness has its price.
And the sacrifice it runs throughout humankind, and time.

Chorus
Some hear the drum of their calling and their station.
When their time comes, they'll be ready and a waiting.
But how do they deal with knowing?

The pauper has a vision of a palace in the sky.
So determined, unwavering, he brings it to his feet.
How does he deal with winning?

His strive for greatness has its price.
And his sacrifice it runs throughout humankind, and time.

Chorus
Some hear the drum of their calling and their station.
When their time comes, they'll be ready and a waiting.
But how do they deal with knowing?
