Thick cloud - steam rising - hissing stone on sweat lodge fire
  Around me - buffalo robe - sage in bundle - run on skin
  Outside - cold air - stand, wait for rising sun
  Red paint - eagle feathers - coyote calling - it has begun
  Something moving in - I taste it in my mouth and in my heart
  It feels like dying - slow - letting go of life
  
  Medicine man lead me up though town - Indian ground -
  so far down
  Cut up land - each house - a pool - kids wearing water
  wings - drink in cool
  Follow dry river bed - watch Scout and Guides make
  pow-wow signs
  Past Geronimo's disco - Sit 'n' Bull steakhouse - white
  men dream
  A rattle in the old man's sack - look at mountain top -
  keep climbing up
  Way above us the desert snow - white wind blow
  
  I hold the line - the line of strength that pulls me through
  the fear
  San Jacinto - I hold the line
  San Jacinto - the poison bite and darkness take my sight -
  I hold the line
  And the tears roll down my swollen cheek - think I'm losing
  it - getting weaker
  I hold the line - I hold the line
  San Jacinto - yellow eagle flies down from the sun -
  from the sun
  
  We will walk - on the land
  We will breathe - of the air
  We will drink - from the stream
  We will live - hold the line
