LYRICS:
Who was I in my former life to make you all believe such fantasies?
Memories have been escaping me. Was it a dream? So it seems…
You insist on calling me your hero
Waves crashing over me
Revealing who I used to be
Now everything I thought was real is fading
So far away from all that I once called home
A leap of faith takes me into the great unknown, alone
Guided by your glow
You said there was nothing that could make you stay
Caught up in a promise you could never break
Calling my name as if the world stopped turning
I looked away and now the sky is burning
So follow the ashes, and they’ll bring you back to me
With hope in our hearts, we will roam
Together, much farther than we thought we’d ever go
Guided by your glow
Born with bleeding hearts, we used the fire to fight through the dark
Torn from all we love, left to expire like those before us
Sworn to rise above, let only courage define who we are
Mourn those we have lost, and carry on with the wisdom that made us strong
Float above the earth, trade your soul for all it’s worth
The clouds become your bed, a place to rest your head
Wander beyond the edge, begin existence once again
With hope in our hearts, we live on
The road has been paved all along, carry on
Face the dark, guided by your glow
You said there was nothing that could make you stay
Caught up in a promise you could never break
Calling my name as if the world stopped turning
I looked away and now the sky is burning
Just follow the ashes, and they’ll bring you back to me
