Horizons Lyrics

I washed up miles away in this brave new world
With my past behind me, my future seems so absurd
"You must be ready to burn yourself in your own flame"
Endure the burdens, and fight through all this pain
"How could you rise anew (how could you rise anew) if you had not first become ashes?"

In this new world, I've found freedom
And a reason to keep fighting

Can you tell me how to find meaning in this place?
Rediscover the meaning of the earth
And take me higher, take me higher
Away from the chaos within to find myself again!

I watched my shadow weaken
As I burned in my own flames

You mindless drones, following the beaten path
Deriving meaning from nothingness
Conformity
No purpose, no end in sight
Blinded by the one true light
You always told me that I'd never move on, that I'd never leave the place that I came from, now I see the truth, you were the ones destined to fall!

These dark nights, they've made me who I am
Dark nights of the soul, made me a better man
One man against the world
I'm at peace, now as one, I've embraced the man that I've become
Away from the chaos and into the light, I've found order in the dead of night

Breathing in this new daylight
I've made it through my darkest night
I can see now this has all been worth the pain
I've found meaning even in my darkest days
Now I see beyond the skyline
The path I take is mine to decide
