Bill Miller - Ghostdance (2001) by Bill Miller (보컬) on maniadb.com

i saw judas iscariot, with a bottle of wine
talkin suicide with an old friend of mine
they gathered a crowd down at the end of the tracks
and a woman cried out when is god comin' back?

and they pretended not to notice
they came down hard on the weak
causing war and starvation, refusing
to let them speak

for every mountain i climb
for every river that winds
for every wind that will blow
i will send out my prayers

for the children below
i saw crazy horse walkin' alone in the dark
on the streets paved in blood
on his broken heart
he never dreamed it would turn out like this

they pretend that they just don't see
they are blinded in their own mediocrity
they got their trophies and their cars

and their houses on the hill
and they don't really care
that their wars are a killin' me

for every child that follows the dream
with ten thousand angels they'll fly
no one will force them to run
they will stand up and fight
till the battle is won

so many hills that we have climbed
so many trails we left behind
so many songs that i forget
the journey isn't over yet
through all the years i've watched you grow
the little secrets we both know
how i held you when you slept
i've always felt the tears you wept

there is a reason for your laughter
there is a reason for your pain
there is a dream you're chasing after
there are some things you'll (we'll) never change

so many rivers we have crossed
the love we found the love we lost
the steps we made i will retrace
the broken memories can't erase

i wanna go where the blind can see
i wanna go where the lame will walk
i wanna see the sick ones clean
where the deaf can hear and the silent talk

where are you going, to a ghostdance in the snow?
where are all your warriors, i see they're finally
coming home

i wanna go where the dead are raised
where the mountain lion lays down with the lamb
i wanna stand where god is praised
i wanna ride across the plains
to the promised land

where i'm going don't need to raise your voice
no starvation we'll have plenty to eat
no guns no wars, no hateful noise
just a victory dance, we'll never taste defeat
where there's nothin' done or said
that can't be forgiven
where every step you take
is on sacred ground

walk away from death
into the land of the living
where all the lost tribes
are finally found

seven blue stones in the desert sand
a shiny gun in a young thief's hand
a stolen car and a broken dream
blood on his hands that won't come clean

no where to run, no where to turn
the fires of rage begin to burn
you can't go home, he can't go on
his flesh is weak, and his spirits gone

now he's behind a prison wall
and doesn't have the will to live
he says it's all his father's fault
he taught his son the way to live
he was unable to forgive

she wore his ring for thirty years
then one night he confessed his darkest fears
he'd been unfaithful, been untrue
what could she say, what could she do?
no where to run, no where to turn
the fires of rage began to burn
she can't go home, she can't go on
her flesh is weak her spirits gone

he betrayed her with a kiss
killed her desires, her will to live
who was blinded, what did they miss?
will she be able to forgive?
are we able to forgive?

i heard a voice callin' out to me
might've been a vision might've been a dream
it said some things will come and some will go
we're only here a moment don't you know

i don't claim to have all the answers
and i've got my share of questions
but if i don't follow blindly
it doesn't mean i've lost my way
i'm still on the journey
headed down the road less traveled
i guess we're all gonna get there
in our own time and way

there's a bridge that leads to the other side
you'll know you've crossed when you arrive
everyone will have a tale to tell
i'm gonna quench my thirst when i drink from that well

there is anger there is rage
nameless victims of the age
hear their voices hear their cries
face to face and eye to eye
where there is promise there is hope
there is you
where there is kindness, there is love
there is you

greedy tyrants using force
vengeful souls without remorse
spreading hate spreading lies
icy fire behind their eyes
where there is conscience their is truth
there is you
where there is someone with a need there is you

you are a rock
you are a shield
you are a flower in the field
you are a shelter in the storm

making ovens building bombs
when will we question what is wrong?
take a stand draw the line
will we die before our time?

where there is grace there is beauty
there is you
where there is peace there is life
there is you
where there is peace there is you

There's a dangerous journey
You'll have to make
Be careful what you carry
Be careful what you take

Blow on Blessing Wind
Blow on Blessing Wind

There's a path through the wilderness
You'll have to find
Those earthly possessions
You must leave behind

The rich man owns rivers of gold
Don't know what it's worth
The meek and the purest of heart
Will inherit the earth
Here's a shield you must carry
A horse you must ride
Show no fear in battle
For I am by your side

like two dogs on an open road
like two flowers on an old gravestone
like two leaves tumblin' in the wind
i?m searchin? for a beginning that has no end

and i'm rollin' with the thunder
still waitin' for the rain
rollin' with the thunder
still waitin' for the rain
like two boots in a salvation army store
like two sailors out lookin' for a whore
two broken windows in a burned out van
i?m a fugitive lookin' for a
one-armed man

two rings in an old pawn shop
two dusty winos cussin' out a cop
two tumbleweeds blowin' across the plain
we?re all dry seeds just waitin' for the rain

there's no reason
for fighting this way
there's no rhyme in the
words that we say

the sun is gonna rise
the sun is gonna rise again
the sun is gonna rise
the sun is gonna rise again

there's no beauty
in thoughts that betray
there's no peace
when your life's gone astray

good and evil
fighting for your soul
we are children
standing in the coldest night
