I take my place among the gathered masses
Drifting round the center of the universe
As far as I can see
I float in the direction
Of the wind and of my will
I drink from the spring that's near
And everything's so clear

Now I can't explain
What I'm going through
But it's gonna bring me back to
Distant days, another time
When nothing really mattered, now I find --
I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright
(I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright)

I find myself among the lines of people
Gazing at the wall that's standing tall
After all these years
And then I place my wishes
Into spaces where they grow
And yes I know they're being heard
I do not say a word

And I can't explain
What I'm going through
But it's gonna bring me back to
Distant days, another time
When nothing really mattered, now I find --
I'm kneeling to the earth and I’m alright...

The gates are open wide
The heavens they have sighed
At the sight of all this pain
But we can try again

And I can't explain
What I'm going through
But it's gonna bring me back to
Distant days, another time
When nothing really mattered, now I find --
I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright...
I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright...
I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright.
