Lyrics
We’re in the church house kneeling down
We’re in the subways underground
In the bars and on the street
Drive a truck we walk a beat
We’re in the mills and factories
We make the steel we cut the trees
A thousand yards stare eyes of glass
We will see you when you pass
We lost our homes we lost our dreams
All our goals have turned to schemes
We hurt each other and ourselves
So after long traumatic spells
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
Wounded
We cry out from the deepest pit
Rise back up each time we’re hit
We fell from power and from grace
The resurrections in our face
We’re just like little girls and boys
We play with grown up toys
We never thought of sink or swim
My brother hurts me so I hurt him
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
Wounded
Like the circle round and round
We go up so we come down
We don’t explain or apologize
We pull the veil across our eyes
We see through your favorite frame
We will let you see your pain
You may not know us but you’ll see
There are more than you believe
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
We are the walking
Wounded
