Crippled and a crawlin' and the leaves they keep a fallin'
But the seasons don't change
Going to Oklahoma where my mind goes in a coma and
The people are strange
Wakin' from a dream then you're kickin' and a screamin'
At the things that I say
Take me by the hand and
Then I'm sure you'll understand
All of the ways I behave
And I will go where I am gold
The fire's out before it's cold
And I will walk a thousand fold
And I will try to light the way back home
Fires are a burnin' and
The times they keep a turnin' all the things that I see
Clouds of smoke a clearin' and
The thing I've been a fearin'
Is a change in belief
We rise up from the ashes
Bold and bitter from the clashes
That will foster this change
But hold it strong and true and then
All of what we do will
Keep the demons at bay
And I will go where I am gold
The fire's out before it's cold
And I will walk a thousand fold
And I will try to light the way back home
