Hallowed Ground Lyrics
[Intro]
The prophet is a fool
The spiritual man is mad
For the multitude of thine iniquity
And the great hatred...
[Verse 1]
Everyone's trying to decide
Where to go when there's no place to hide
I follow the bombs as they're coming down
This must have been hallowed ground
[Verse 2]
No matter what they decide to have done
Burn up the clouds, block out the sun
My hope is in one they can't bring down
My soul is in hallowed ground
[Verse 3]
I see the fear, it's on the rise
Let's catch the enemy by surprise
Bury your treasure where it can't be found
Bury it deep in hallowed ground
