Along the lost horizon 

There's a distant shot at freedom 

Breaking down the borders 

That keep my heart in line 

​ 

Pushing on the mountains 

Leaves swell until they're tangled 

Busting through the boundaries 

Implanted years ago 

​ 

Chained and stuck in motion 

Our intentions are revealed 

I realize that hope 

Won't keep my hands clean 

​ 

These chains may be forgotten 

But they cannot be forsaken 

Until the day comes 

When their rattle turns to dust 

​ 

Now the dust turns to quicksand 

And we cannot escape 

Destined to return to 

The desert of our defeat 

​ 

Moments turn to minutes 

And minutes turn to memories 

Not a day goes by 

That won't leave us behind 

​ 

We have to make a decision 

Do we stay or do we fight 

Remain with the ordinary 

Or try to leave it behind 

​ 

Leave it behind 

Leave it behind 

Leave it behind
