Joe Hertler & The Rainbow Seekers Your Story Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Drunk and drenched in southeast Chicago
Having conversation with the Calumet
You jumped right in and like an old steel barge
You sank like an industry that came and went

[Verse 2]
As you rose to the surface you pondered your purpose
Trading gazes with skyscrapers staring down
You asked them their names and they groaned and they quaked
Like sleeping sentinels waking up
Like sleeping sentinels waking up

[Chorus]
This is your story
These are your scars
Don't you ever forget who you are
When it gets heavy
When it gets hard
Don't you ever forget who you are
Don't you ever forget who you are

[Verse 3]
Out on the sand, the feeling was sober
You left god in the wake by the shore
You stood yourself up, you were naked and nameless
But in losing foundation you grew ever more

[Verse 4]
You fueled your own furnace, when you spoke they all heard it
Like lightning at the edge of a storm Every word was a wave, every thought was a cave
That bore through every mind that came before

[Chorus]
This is your story
These are your scars
Don't you ever forget who you are
When it gets heavy
When it gets hard
Don't you ever forget who you are
Don't you ever forget who you are

[Bridge]
They don't know you like we know you
You are not the one to blame
They don't know you like we know you
You are not the one to blame
They don't know you like we know you
You are not the one to blame

[Chorus]
This is your story
These are your scars
Don't you ever forget who you are
When it gets heavy
When it gets hard
Don't you ever forget who you are

[Chorus]
This is your story
These are your scars
Don't you ever forget who you are
When it gets heavy
When it gets hard
Don't you ever forget who you are
Don't you ever forget who you are
