Who am I?

Who am I

Am I supposed to be?

Soon I'm gone

And now I just can't see

Time goes on

And you'll go too from me

Summer days ticked away

I lost the words I failed to say

A monk toils on a sand design

And Sisyphus was a friend of mine

Who am I

(Who are you supposed to be?)

Am I supposed to be?

Soon I'm gone

(Soon you're gone)

And now I just can't see

(And then I'll be free to be me)

Time goes on

(In time you'll see me for me and all I've seen)

And you'll go too from me

Ninety nine, sands of time

Photons struck the film

Made of clay, who were they?

I saw me grow inside the kiln

Who am I

(Who are you supposed to be?)

Am I supposed to be?

Soon I'm gone

(Soon you're gone)

And now I just can't see

(And then I'll be free to be me)

Time goes on

(Time you'll see me for me and all I've seen)

And you'll go too from me
