lyrics

Are you cheatin' yourself again
Caught in your own web
The ground beneath you has begun to spin
And you have forgotten what it is like to
Go walkin'

We all lose our balance from time to time
But the saying is true, it will return after a short while

But this red tin can buried deep inside your chest
Has rusted from giving up and taken too long of a rest
And your feet, they miss the feelin' of gravel beneath their souls
If there's one thing we were made to do
It's to breathe out and
Go walkin'

We all lose our balance from time to time
But the saying is true, it will return after a short while

So lay down in the heart of this sleepin' town
It will provide with the comfort your lookin' for
Put on your best coat, your favorite scarf to warm your throat
Head into winter, leaving the sun
So careless and bold

'Cause your feet, they miss the feelin'
Of gravel beneath their souls
And your heart is breakin' a fever
From beating on its own
Build up from the ground
The simple home you know
Reach out to hold a hand
Breathe out and
Go walkin'
