It's a long, hard road to the glory land, I'm starting my good work now
Spirit's gonna take me by the hand, if I start my praying now
The Earth's in trouble, the people too; I'm looking for a sign
Gonna leave my wanton, worried ways and troubled past behind
The demons are hot on my trail tonight
But my spirit's strong and my eyes are bright
Twelve burning moons, it's been a long year
But I won't disappear, no I won't disappear, no I won't disappear
My good ghosts will speak to me in dreams and the eyes of creatures
I'll sing the songs that come along from strange, enchanting teachers
I never knew what a prayer could do until they started coming true
Music is the medicine where fear and greed once grew
The demons are hot on my trail tonight
But my mind is calm and my heart is light
Twelve burning moons, it's been a long year
But I won't disappear, no I won't disappear, no I won't disappear
