Land Of Living Skies Pt. 2: The Living Skies |
Take a long walk down the countryside |
Take a long, long time to clear my mind |
Living behind these steel bars |
Someone strolls along the oceanside, |
Looking out to «The Land of Living Skies», |
Casting glances from tear-filled eyes |
Up on top of this burned-down countryside |
This fire envelops me |
I’ll be sitting on that beach |
Thinking «was it ever too late?» |
Once was great, all falls into place |
We make our mistakes and take them to our graves |
Up on top of this barren mountainside |
This fire that follows me |
As I’m wading into the ocean, wading until I get knee-deep |
Look up to «The Land of Living Skies» |
While I’m drowning in a sea, |
(look up to «The Land of Living Skies») |
Drowning in a sea of glory |
They show you the room where you stay |
Cold walls of concrete and clay |
Through one tiny window you’ll see |
Armys of soldiers in green, all for you |
Gathered, as stones from a grave: |
Troops with dark horses at bay |
As far as your eyes can see: |
Millions of men on one knee, all for you |
