Walking on Sacred Ground

I once was much like you

Had a nine to five and a mortgage due

That rat race got to me

First it ate me up, then it set me free

One day it buried me alive

I snapped and almost lost my mind

I crawled out just in time, to go

Walking - walking - walking

Walking on sacred ground

Walking - walking - walking

Walking on sacred ground

At first I lost my way

but I stumbled on until one day

I came across a stone

with the name of every soul I'd known

I edged around it carefully

'til it became a memory

that set my spirit free, to go

Walking - walking - walking

Walking on sacred ground

Walking - walking - walking

Walking on sacred ground

Mmm, we're all afraid of going under

Honey, is it really any wonder?

caught between the silence and the thunder

I once was 'much like you

Always a lot to do

I ran so hard to stay in place

the wind took on a bitter taste

Now I don't run that race. I go

Walking - walking - walking

Walking on sacred ground

Walking - walking - walking

Walking on sacred ground
