about

I love this song because it gets women other than myself to dance, and to feel--to remember their courage and to look inside themselves for what truth they need.

lyrics

I woke up on a journey, the road ahead in my mind's eye
its lessons universal and its beauty hard to hide
The way, it opened for me like the drawbridge of a castle
Underneath the tragedy I found the Cave of Crystal
Do not fear the traps you set years ago,
now seething to taste your blood.
Knowledge will not come unless you're bold enough to peek inside.
Follow Inanna's footsteps down. To hell with the bumpy ride.

Follow Inanna's footsteps down.
We'll find what you need in the Underground.

So what if the story takes you to where the river's dressed in black?
The Ferryman will know you by the Reaper on your back.
The way will open for you like the drawbridge of a castle.
Wild times ahead before you find Merlin's Cave of Crystal.
Whether on Dragonwing you fly, or gust of an idea from the mind,
don't you look above for what you're hoping to find.
It's been inside you all along, child.
Hiding inside you so many ways; burning brightly all these days.

Follow Inanna's footsteps down.
We'll find what you need in the Underground.
Follow the daughter's footsteps down.
We'll find you a king in the Underground.
Follow the Lady's footsteps down.
Go into the Green in the Underground.
Follow Inanna's footsteps down.
Believe what you see in the Underground.

Girl you must prove bold and brave
Go wandering inside the Crystal Cave
You will know it as your own mind before the sun dies away.
You'll see your heart's dreams come into play.
Shining, shimmering, all these days!

Follow Inanna's footsteps down
We'll find what you need in the Underground.
Follow the daughter's footsteps down
We'll find you a king in the Underground.
Follow the Lady's footsteps down
Believe what you see in the Underground.
Follow Inanna's footsteps down.
You'll find what you need in the Underground.
