"Elysium" lyrics

"Elysium"

[Part 1]

I've never felt like this before
Am I awake? Am I drifting?
There's a hole in the sky!
Am I alive? Did I survive?

Broken pictures on my wall
A story of fallen heroes
Now stare ahead with their blind eyes on a lost horizon

Sometimes the dream is sublime with you
I feel in my mind in heaven

I'm reaching this feeling
It's misleading me away from you
Tonight, I find what I've been searching for
To go look for my wings once more
I'm not afraid anymore

I'm not afraid anymore

Sometimes the dream is sublime with you
I feel in my mind in heaven

I am ready to fall
I'm not afraid anymore

Sometimes the traces of life with you
Are clearer in my mind than ever
I'm reaching this feeling
It's misleading me away from you

Tonight I'll find what I've been searching for
You can rip off my wings once more
I'm not afraid anymore
I am ready to fall
I'm not afraid anymore

[Part 2]

I am lying on the frozen ground alone
I got lost on my way, my time is up
I'm gone!

I need to find the key
To eternal life and see
The joy, the smile
The overwhelming love of God
Is what I need!

Give me a sign, and show me the way
To the sacred place!

I can hear you calling my name
From the distant skies
I am holding a falling angel
In my arms

Your shadow lurking in the corner of my eye
I'm losing sense of what's real and what's a lie!

I need to find the key
To eternal life and see
The joy, the smile
The overwhelming love of God
Is what I need!

Give me a sign, and show me the way
To the sacred place!

Eternal calling at your fame was not mine
Remedy this falling lie!

I feel it burning with me ahead
The earth is turning to red
I'm staring at the flaming skies
To try not to fight
A chance to close my eyes

I am holding a falling angel in my arms

[Part 3]

This life has been too long
There's hope everywhere I go

Do you believe in hope and faith
Or eternity?
In the end, you will see
Let thy soul be free

Eternal light
Blinded my eyes

Pain and sorrow
Joy will follow
Now in turn
Elysium

Do you believe in hope and faith
Or eternity?
In the end, you will see
Let your soul be free
Be afraid no more
Just take my hand, I'll guide you through the storm
We're finally home

We're finally home
