The Story Behind Underground

At various points in my life I found myself looking for the joy and peace that love brings.  I found that even though I felt empty and needed more love in my life, I was not ready to receive it. As love has found me throughout my life, with friends and family and my wife and children I was always surprised when I found it. Maybe earlier in life, moving from a young child to a teenager, I didn’t appreciate my family's love and I was a very aggressive and short tempered kid. Later as I experienced losing a brother, it really opened my eyes about the love that had found its way “underground” from my family and was helping me float on their waters. Many times I wasn’t “looking” for it, but love found me, broke me down, and really set me free (thanks to my wonderful wife, Laura!), making me a more thankful person and a better part of my communities.

Underground - Lyrics

I can feel that water
Running under the ground
Its passing up my borders
Bringing me round bringing me round your shrine

Weaving through my borders
Picking up pieces of my mind
Washing away my sorrows
Pushing those borders helping me to unwind

Your love is running under ground
Is filling up the whole in me
Your love is breaking me down
Your Love Your love
Your Love Your love
Set Me Free

Im in that current
Its carrying me round
No more thirsty orders
Flowing underground flowing thru my mind

Lifting me up from the bottom
Showing me the sky
I cant help but float on your waters
They are teaching me, yeah teaching me to survive

Your love is running under ground
Is filling up the whole in me
Your love is breaking me down
Your Love Your love
Your Love Your love
Set Me Free

Washing away - my - sorrows
Washing away - my - sorrows

Your love is running under ground
Is filling up the whole in me
Your love is breaking me down
Your Love Your love

Your love is running under ground
Is filling up the whole in me
Your love is breaking me down
Your Love Your love
Your Love Your love will
Set Me Free
