It was an April morning
When they told us we should go.
And as I turned to you you smiled at me
How could we say no?
Whoa the fun to have,
To live the dreams we've always had.
Whoa the songs to sing,
When we at last return again.

We swept New York a glancing kiss,
To those who claim they know.
Under the streets the steam and hiss,
The devil's in his hold.
Whoa to sail away,
Sandy lands and holidays.
Whoa to touch the dream,
Eyes inside have never seen yeah.

And to the sun the south the north,
Flocks of birds have flown.
The shackles of commitment fell,
In pieces on the ground.
Whoa to ride the wind,
To tread the air above the din.
Whoa to laugh aloud,
Dancing eyes above the crowd yeah.

Seek a man whose pointing hand,
A giant step unfolds.
Guide us from the curving path,
That churns up into stone.
If one bell should ring,
In celebration for a king.
So fast the heart should beat,
As proud for him [?he can't be beat?] yeah.

Days went by when you and I,
Bathed in eternal summer's glow.
It's far away and distant,
A mutual time to grow.
Whoa the sweet refrain,
Soothes the soul and calms the pain.
Oh I'll here remain,
Sleeping now to rise again.

Wandering and wandering,
One place to rest the search.
Where the mighty arms of Atlas,
Hold the heavens from the Earth.
Where the mighty arms of Atlas,
Hold the heavens from the earth.
From the earth.

I'm gonna reign, gonna reign, gonna reign.
I'm gonna reign, gonna reign, gonna reign.

Where the mighty arms of Atlas,
Hold the heavens from the earth.

I touched with one
who made me run
away from my own soul...
In this world with its
many illusions
We are moving like mice through a maze

And now I find
what's left behind
has served to make me whole
full of doubt, deception, and delusion
seeking purpose to all earthly days

I search within
beneath a skin
that bears both pleasure and pain
In a world full of constant confusion
I will not be a par to the craze

  In the Afterlife
  will dark be bright?
  will cold be warm?
  will the day have no night?
  In the Afterlife?
  will the blind have sight?
  In the Afterlife.

Behind closed eyes
some comfort lies
In knowing the truth never spoken
Through this world with its
hidden conclusion
we'll keep moving like mice through a maze

  In the Afterlife
  will dark be bright?
  will cold be warm?
  will the day have no night?
  In the Afterlife?
  will the blind have sight?
  In the Afterlife.

  In the Afterlife
  will dark be bright?
  will cold be warm?
  will the day have no night?
  In the Afterlife?
  will the blind have sight?
  In the Afterlife.

Helpless child
They invite your hands to fill their needs
Will you be the same
Shameless smile
To steal from you the innocence that bleeds
Will they feel your pain
Trying to believe
The scars unseen
The tears wash clean
You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe
You don't know how you'll live a life alone
She keeps holding on
Holding on to you
Let her breathe the air
Don't wanna be alone
Where do you belong
Anna Lee
Behind those eyes
The vivid scene
A lucid dream within
Questioned secrets are revealed
And everytime
You can't deny
The lines that trace your skin
Wounds that never heal
Trying to believe
The scars unseen
The tears wash clean
You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe
You don't know how you'll live a life alone
She keeps holding on
Holding on to you
Let her breathe the air
Don't wanna be alone
Where do you belong
Anna Lee
And now she's calling out a name
Can't keep on hiding all her pain
You feel the rain move in
As you begin
To turn and answer the call
Trying to believe
The scars unseen
The tears wash clean
You don't wanna breathe the air you breathe
You don't know how you'll live a life alone
She keeps holding on
Holding on to you
Let her breathe the air
Don't wanna be alone
Where do you belong
Anna Lee

Live another day
Climb a little higher
Find another reason to stay
Ashes in your hands
Mercy in your eyes
If you're searching for a silent sky...

Chorus:
  You won't find it here
  Look another way
  You won't find it here
  So die another day

The coldness of his words
The message in his silence
"Face the candle to the wind..."
This distance in my voice
Isn't leaving you a choice
So if you're looking for a time to run away...

Chorus

They took pictures of our dreams
Ran to hide behind the stairs
And said maybe when it's right for you, they'll fall
But if they don't come down
Resist the need to pull them in
And throw them away
Better to save the mystery
Than surrender to the secret

Chorus
