New Model Army - One Of The Chosen lyrics

It was I that was lost and they that were searching It was I that was weak and they had the power So I went with the others to the bus that was waiting And we drove out for miles to a place in the country We were ten to a room, the windows don't open We were woken for prayer at four in the morning All wired with hunger and energy crackling And through the corridors I could hear chanting' The hall was lit with candles and all the light was golden And I felt something bursting, something down inside me Singing out aloud about God and Love and Healing And everything was moving and I'm on the floor kneeling I am part of something I am one of the Chosen I am part of something I am one of the Chosen There is something in us all that wants to surrender To be guided through it all like star-eyed children And I hated the world as I've come to know it And they hated the world with just the same vengeance And I wanted reasons and they gave me reasons And I wanted purpose, and they gave me purpose And here from the inside all the lights are blazing And the view of the old world is dull and grey and joyless Let it burn inside me, let it burn inside me Let it burn inside me, let it burn inside me Now we are the Holy Fools, we are the fearless We are the Holy Fools we are the fearless And I am part of something I am one of the Chosen I am part of something I am one of the Chosen
