Sacred Ground Songtext
von David Gray

Dressed in only tar and feathers
Naked of all vanities
As the searchlights burst like doves through the window
Lead me to my victory

Build a city in the mouth of a furnace
Feed the fire and melt it down
Feel the ancient hush descending
Coming on this sacred ground

Like a whale′s heart pumping life blood
Through its veins as thick as trees
Let the spirit flow to our mouths and our fingers
For to hold us from our knees


Build a city in the mouth of a graveyard
Feed the fire and melt it down
Feel the ancient hush descending
Coming on this sacred ground

Nobody, oh nobody
Will be denied
Oh nobody, oh nobody
Will be denied
Oh nobody, oh nobody
Will be denied

Coming on this sacred ground
Coming on this sacred ground
Coming on this sacred ground
Coming on this sacred ground
