Walking in silence, was lost in the forest
I heard the trees whisper all around
Wasn't looking for answers until they told me
Now is the time to leave the past behind
Hold it down, hold it down
Find your strength from the ground
Barefoot on rough paths, steps are hard and lonely
Secrets of dark nights cover the daytime breeze
Oh mother of lost creatures, ease my soul, mend me
After a storm, sun sparks through the leaves
And let me
Hold it down, hold it down
Find my strength from the ground
Hold it down, hold it down
Find my strength from the ground
Breaking bones and shedding skins is
How I thought I'd see it through
Near the breathing roots and molasses
Here's the place where I found you
With the brush of light and shadow
You paint me to who I ought to be
Had to get lost to find the right road
Closed my eyes, so now I see
Hold it down, hold it down
Find my strength from the ground
Walking in silence, was lost in the forest
