The Promised Land — Lyriel

Ahead I see the shoes Well-worn from all the land Gentle ones and kind As well as bleak and baleful ones We've seen Our journey through decades

The auras of the world Are always suffusing our heads Faces passing by Some to notice and some to forget

Our shadows stay behind Where once we were condemned To be slaves Today nothing is left But our bleached and battered Skin and bones

Now our hearts arrived Where our souls are still longing to be Step by step we go The road is long, the fate in our hands

Our way to the promised land We seek to reach it soon The land where we can linger after all A place to just call home

Ahead I see a boy His young hands outworn from hard work Who defines his life He is not the one who pulls the strings But see Our journey far away

We beg for freedom But sorrow is all we receive Too weak to fight against But too strong to just accept without hate

These days are long ago I turn my eyes to better dreams We don't fear the dark Cause we want to achieve an aim

From now on there's no mourn Only laughter will be our guide Now our hearts arrived And our souls don't need to long anymore

Our way to the promised land We seek to reach it soon The land where we can linger after all A place to just call home
