1
I was a tourist in the Andes
2
On my way to Tiahuanaco
3
Where the balance of a weeping god
4
Faced east to the rising sun
5
But I looked out the window
6
And all I could see
7
Was the face of a girl
8
She was looking at me
9
She was begging for food
10
Then I knew I had found
11
The weeping god
12
In the face of a child
13
As she gestures with her fingers
14
Her little brother followed suit
15
And all I did was take my camera
16
So the image never fades away
17
I no longer saw the great gate of the sun
18
Nor the dawn of time when our race had begun
19
Just black eyes like starving dogs looking at me
20
A weeping god was all I'd ever see
21
And as I sat in contemplation beyond all charity
22
Losing the magic and meaning of living
23
(the earth and the stars these things are mine)
24
And when they've drained the earth of all resources
25
We'll face the music still
26
For you and I shall be striking memories
27
In the thoughts of our children's children
28
I had arrived at my destination
29
At the gate of the rising sun
30
We shall again regain in sunset that balance
31
That we left undone
32
I stared at the shacks and the shanty town mess
33
I couldn't help but to think of the West
34
The balance was lost and my reason went wild
35
As the weeping god came alive in the child
36
I began to weep
37
And I remember the violation
38
Determination came,
39
Determination, Yeah!
