Chains of the Past Lyrics

Born in a place I didn't belong
Surrounded by faces I never used to know
Never used to know
Never learned to trust, never learned to love
I've chained my heart behind cold bars,
sealed with scars

An innocent child reaches up to the sky
He doesn't realize the size of his dreams
Old man always said:
"You can't understand the pain
that comes up with a broken dream"

I just have to leave to fullfill my dreams
I just have to see: is out there a task for me?

Too long I've been inside these walls
Too long been trapped behind sealed doors forevermore
There's nothing left for my soul to see
I open up the gates and I am finally free
Finally free

At one ice-cold night,
I finally saw a distant ship arriving to the shore
Cold tear in her eye,
the mother finds a silent ship sailing to its dawn

I just have to leave to fullfill my dreams
I just have to see: is out there a task for me?
Is out there a task for me?

Chains of the past are fading behind
as my spirit leads me into my dawn
But how could I leave without a wound
in the spirit that carries me on?

I set my sails at night
A doubt in mind as home falls behind
My journey's just begun
With head up high, I face this life!
I sense a storm drawing near
Waves keep rising as fear fills the air
The lightning cracks the sky
Can't fight it back, just hold on tight!

Once again I gaze the sunset without a friend
For years I've sought my task to fill my emptiness
I've been so lost on my journey
I've felt my loneliness growing
I can't go on, but I can't go back
Alone I'm flowing in the sea of desperate dreams
The clouds of reality rolling after me
Rolling after me

Chains of the past are fading behind
as my spirit leads me into my dawn
But how could I leave without a wound
in the spirit that carries me on?
Carries me on (x4)
