I was born to live and I live to give,
I'm the love that you feel, the life that lives real in you,
I was born to die and I live to cry,
I'm your tormented soul, blackness that holds you

So think of me as history,
And I will leave to you all that you do

Well I walked this earth, since woman gave birth,
I'm the seed that's sown,
The harvest Is grown in all you,
But I've laid to waste, my future in haste,
I'm the crops that have failed,
The burden that's nailed to all you

So think of me as history,
And I will leave to you, all that you do

All love is holy, all love is holy, all love is holy,
Our love is holy

I'm the cloud that bursts, I rain down your thirst,
I'm the thunder you hear, the lightening that spears your night,
I'm the shadow that is cast, I project all your past,
I'm the children you burn, the cross that is turned by all you

So think of me as history,
And I will leave to you, all that you do
