lyrics

If there is no hero flying high above
Would the earth come crumbling and crush all that you love
You cannot see what isn’t really there
If there are no rules, it cannot be unfair

Take me somewhere new
Take me somewhere new
Take me somewhere new
Away from here

If my will won’t break the way you think it should
Would you tell me to kneel, as if I ever could
It smells of ash, of dreams turned into smoke
You smile and whisper, some twisted inside joke

Take me somewhere new
Take me somewhere new
Take me somewhere new
Away from here

A small man’s tale to scare the children straight
Don’t test the waters, or question what we hate
And if there is no hero flying through the stars
Would the truth lay bare, a tapestry of scars

If you lost yourself, would you even know
If your eyes went dark, would it even show
If you lost yourself
If you lost yourself

When the sun goes cold in the emerald sky
Will the last illusion pass you by
If you lost yourself
If you lost yourself
