[00:16.50] I was a tourist in the Andes
[00:19.38] On my way to Tiahuanaco
[00:22.63] Where the balance of a weeping god
[00:25.08]
[00:25.69] Faced east to the rising sun
[00:27.94]
[00:28.50] But I looked out the window
[00:30.06] And all I could see
[00:31.37] Was the face of a girl
[00:32.81] She was looking at me
[00:34.24] She was begging for food
[00:35.80] Then I knew I had found
[00:37.48] The weeping god
[00:38.80] In the face of a child
[00:40.36]
[00:44.47] As she gestures with her fingers
[00:46.28]
[00:47.09] Her little brother followed suit
[00:49.47]
[00:50.16] And all I did was take my camera
[00:52.71]
[00:53.21] So the image never fades away
[00:56.08] I no longer saw the great gate of the sun
[00:58.95] Nor the dawn of time when our race had begun
[01:01.88] Just black eyes like starving dogs looking at me
[01:04.38]
[01:04.94] A weeping god was all I'd ever see
[01:07.69]
[01:08.31] And as I sat in contemplation beyond all charity
[01:12.84]
[01:13.40] Losing the magic and meaning of living
[01:17.53] （the earth and the stars these things are mine）
[01:21.34] And when they've drained the earth of all resources
[01:23.96] We'll face the music still
[01:25.64] For you and I shall be striking memories
[01:29.34]
[01:30.08] In the thoughts of our children's children
[01:32.95]
[01:39.57] I had arrived at my destination
[01:41.87] At the gate of the rising sun
[01:45.44] We shall again regain in sunset that balance
[01:48.86] That we left undone
[01:51.74] I stared at the shacks and the shanty town mess
[01:54.36] I couldn't help but to think of the West
[01:57.22] The balance was lost and my reason went wild
[02:00.46] As the weeping god came alive in the child
[02:03.52] I began to weep
[02:43.49] And I remember the violation
[02:51.33]
[02:53.76] Determination came,
[02:55.51]
[02:59.50] Determination, Yeah!
[00:16.50] I was a tourist in the Andes
[00:19.38] On my way to Tiahuanaco
