I was walking on one cloudy morning
With uncertain shadow on my soul
Underneath the shadow there was yearning
To be done walking on the burning coal
I'm walking
Burning
Walking
I walking on the burning coal
I'm walking
Ain't it easier to fall
Leave behind scenarios made for you
And stay on a path to your own pole
Ain't no ordinary stroll
Gets the sailor knot in my chest undone
And the shadow
Feels the soul
Turned to ashes
Turned aerial
And you don't need no one to walk you through it
Through this would be world burial
I'm walking
Burning
Walking
I walking on the burning coal
Coal
Coal
Ain't it easier to
Is there anybody coming here to see
Is there anybody looking to heal me
I was walking on one cloudy morning
With uncertain shadow on my soul
Underneath the shadow there was yearning
Ain't it easier to fall
Fall
Walking on the burning coal
As I'm walking on the burning coal
Walking on the burning coal
Walking
Burning
Walking on the burning coal
I'm walking
Walking on the burning coal
Walking
Burning
Walking on the burning coal
