lyrics

“From The Ground” - Mike Turnwall

I used to think
In the spaces, between the sounds
But now there’s only noise instead of silence

I used to hear
The sound of roots still growing
But now all that’s left
To hear, are engines running

And miners unwillingly driving, deeply down
Into caverns, unveiling
That greed comes from the ground

I used to believe
In a God, who hid, behind the sun
But now, I cease to be fooled
I choose, to worship no one

I used to know
A lie, when it was given
And now the only one
I know, is the life I’m living

Of miners unwillingly driving, deeply down
Into caverns, unveiling
That greed comes from the ground

(I used to think)
