Walden, Walden, would you lead me to simplicity, illuminate the excess within me?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to the woods and leave me to discover all I can be?Show me puddles dancing circles round the drops where they've been kissed.Show me illusions in the light of morning mist.Show me cappuccinos sipped and leaves drinking rain.Show me the moments I can smile through the pain.Walden, Walden, would you lead me to simplicity, illuminate the excess within me?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to the woods and leave me to discover all I can be?Let me follow the grain of the timber beneath my feet.Let me honor the sacrifice of the paper beneath my pen.Let me filter out the noise so I can hear my own heartbeat.Let me question everything I know and learn it all again.Remind me how it feels to be a stranger in my own land, with a danger in my own hand.If I don't try to understand just how everything's all connected.And let the world keep on spinning if I'm in the sky or ground.Not making any sound except the melodies we found and the love that lives in them protecting.Walden, Walden, would you lead me to simplicity, illuminate the excess within me?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to the woods and leave me to discover all I can be?Let me listen to the birds sing in the ancient tree beside me.Let me smell the summer mornings of the rain against the pine.Let me forget that I am human and remember that I'm free.A wandering branch of the divine.Remind me how it feels when my hand's stiffened in the cold.When my family grows old and I feel distant from my mind.When my toes are miles away and I have no prayers to pray.When I'm hungry and the day is a door I cannot find.Walden, Walden, would you lead me to simplicity, illuminate the excess within me?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to the woods and leave me to discover all I can be?Let me hear the stirring in my soul.Let me hear the music of the trees.Let me trust in what is difficult and place my trust with ease.Remind me what it feels like to come from somewhere.To live somewhere else, to loosen the tethers of my mind.To listen to the winds, to feel the rumble of the earth.The static of the news and the sadness of the blues and the gratitude.You can choose if you want to.Walden, Walden, would you lead me to simplicity, illuminate the excess within me?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to the woods and leave me to discover all I can be?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to simplicity, illuminate the excess within me?Walden, Walden, would you lead me to the woods and leave me to discover all I can be?
