Who are we?

Who made the light
Who made the night
Who gave us hunger
For another life

Who made the body
Who made the flame
And why do we love
If love causes pain

I was born without an answer
I was given eyes to see
Someone built a world around me
But they never told me who to be

I can recognize the darkness
I can recognize the light
But the closer that I get to them
The more they look alike

Is evil just a shadow
Of a fear we cannot name
Is goodness only something
We invented to explain?

Tell me who is holding the wire
Tell me who designed the fire
Tell me why the heart still burns
When there is nowhere left to turn

Who are we
Who are we
Made of love
Made of mystery

Who are we
Who are we
Is it you
Is it me

What is good
What is wrong
Why do we need
To belong

Who are we
Who are we
Tell me
What are we
Who are we
Who are we
What are we
What are we

Why does passion wake the animal
Sleeping underneath the skin
Why does one forbidden touch
Make another world begin

Why do bodies seek each other
Why does loneliness remain
Why can one kiss feel like heaven
And another feel like pain

Maybe passion is a signal
Maybe love is something more
Maybe every human feeling
Is a door behind a door

Tell me who invented desire
Who put the soul inside the fire
Why do we reach across the space
Just to see another face

Who are we
Who are we
Made of love
Made of mystery

Who are we
Who are we
Is it you
Is it me

What is good
What is wrong
Why do we need
To belong

Who are we
Who are we
Tell me
What are we

Maybe love is not possession
Maybe love is letting go

Maybe evil is not a monster
Maybe evil is what we don't know

Maybe God is not above us
Maybe God is looking through our eyes

Maybe every human question
Is the reason we survive

Who created the creator
Who created the desire
Who created the feeling
That can turn a spark into fire
Who created you
Who created me

Who are we
Who are we
Made of blood
Made of memory

Who are we
Who are we
A little light
In a galaxy

What is love
What is pain
Why do we lose
And love again

Who are we
Who are we
Maybe we're searching
To become free

Who are we
Who are we
Made of love
Made of mystery
Who are we
Who are we

Maybe you
Maybe me

Who are we
What are we
Why do we love
Why do we feel
Why do we burn
Why do we dream


Maybe the answer
...is the question
