lyrics

Get a dark twisted feeling when I think about the people
That I've loved & I've lost
When I was young I thought the country held me down
I thought it kept me from being myself

I lose myself in thought
Thinking about how this ground has saved my life

The silence has shaken me, the prairie wind on my face
Will you pray for me

In moonlight my wind wanders to the native tribes
That used to walk the land that I love
I know that they lived off the land
I know they treated this ground better than I have

I lose myself in thought
Thinking about why all of that had to be

The wind blowing through my hair, I find it hard to believe
Will you pray for me

The North & the South fought a battle
For a rail line fifteen miles from here
They shaped the future of a nation
And then I played the same war in this field

I lose myself in thought
Thinking about this land that I'm from

A train off in the distance, I hear it calling my name
Will you pray for me
