[Edward:] Beneath an iron sky My people live in poverty and crime Existing underneath a tyrant ruler's hand And through the longest night I raise their spirits, guide them to a light And give what little hope I can
We are lost – in an endless night The sun drained from our eyes Gone – when we sold our lives To the plague that stole the sky
Where no one dares to go Yet there's a world outside, we know To leave the city is to throw your life away Yet there's a dream I hide To breathe the pure and poison sky At any moment I could Walk out and never return
Outside the city walls The victims of infection haunt my thoughts The worst affliction ever known Condemned to waste away Or die by hunters stalking them as prey Abandoned, helpless and alone
I could leave – and be vital To the ones in dire need If I stay – I'll be nothing more My choice is surely made
And so I'm leaving all Leave the city far behind Cause there is nothing That I can do here for the world Now I'm leaving all Leave this short life far behind I know I'll never come back
Do you still believe in life hereafter Even with the suffering of the living ones And do you feel that the will to heal Is subservient to God above I don't know if faith alone can help them That is why I venture out to give My own life so I and the afflicted ones can live Life before death Life before death
Alone I make my way No more empty promises this time This is the precipice The point of no return The world of the afflicted Clear and calm before my eyes I only have to take one step To breathe the air at last And I have joined them And I have joined them
I won't give my life for nothing If I can say I made a change To be remembered is the only thing I ask And leaving all behind I'll live so I may also find A place in life before my death
In the wilds, all our pasts will be forgotten No matter who, we can all be redeemed One last time To respect all life, whether friend or enemy To bring the cycle of hurt to an end
Do you still believe in life hereafter Even with the suffering of the living ones And do you feel that the will to heal Is subservient to God above I don't know if faith alone can help them That is why I venture out to give My own life so I and the afflicted ones can live Life before death Life before death Life before deathTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
