lyrics

Lyrics:

Hanging from the mast, for a life beyond the horizon,
hopes and dreams – oh – fighting against the sea.
Prisoners of life, seek a new beginning,
souls trapped in a never-ending war.

A timeless tale since the dawn of days,
a timeless tale into this cruel world.
A timeless tale until the end of days,
a timeless tale until the end of the world.

Our eyes, wide-open, yet are so blind to see,
what lies on our doorstep.
What a child wanted, what a child will never be
and what the Man deserves to take.

A timeless tale since the dawn of days,
a timeless tale into this cruel world.
A timeless tale until the end of days,
a timeless tale until the end of the world.
