lyrics
Well there’s fields of fresh filled dirt
That I walk upon
Well there’re fields of plenty
Where I’m from
So I dig my toes in deep
Stretch my arms up high
Knowin that someday I’ll have to say goodbye
Light a candle for your loved ones
Light a candle watch it burn
There’s more to this planet
Than plain old dirt
Let the wick keep on burning
Don’t let your love ever die
Well this burning
It opened my eye
We keep on walking lookin down
Trying to burn ourselves up
We branded our home
We destroyed what we claimed
Now we’re stuck wonderin who to blame
I’m made of this very land
I’m sick of trying to not understand
So I walk here to feel the pulse
Of my own beating heart
Reclaim what I’ve lost
And start from where I forgot
Light a candle for your loved ones
Light a candle watch it burn
There’s more to this planet
Than plain old dirt
Let the wick keep on burning
Don’t let your love ever die
Well this burning
It opened my eye
