Lyrics
I have walked through these hills
Just to carry these burdens away
And I have wandered through these lands
Just to carry me further away
From the killers
From the war mongers
From the demon that lives deep inside me
To the peacemakers
To the passion that will carry me further
I have witnessed more than my fair share
And I?ve carried these burdens alone
I have redressed as much as I dare
And it?s carried me further along
From the boasters
From the braggarts
From the demon that lives deep inside me
To the healers
To the passion that will carry me further
And I have been more
Than I ever thought I?d be
And I have traveled
Farther than the eye can see
But I still can?t find
The secret of peace in this world
I would swallow all of my pride
If it would carry your burdens away
And I would follow you to the ends of the earth
If it would carry us further away
From the hatred
From brutality
From the demon that lives deep inside me
To the heartbeat
To the passion that will carry us further
From the killing
From the warring
From the demon that lives deep inside me
To the center
Of the passion that will carry us further
