[Intro — whispered] Beyond the smoke... Beyond the rain... There's a place they promised us But nothing stays the same. [Verse 1] They told us there would be a shore Where we wouldn't hurt anymore But every mile became a lie And every angel learned to die [Pre-Chorus] Can you hear them calling? From the other side Can you see the lights now? Or are they only lies? [Chorus] Take me to the Promised Land Where the broken understand Take me where the shadows end Where the lost can breathe again [Verse 2] The churches burn without a sound Black roses growing from the ground We 'd worries we couldn't keep And buried dreams that wouldn't sleep [Pre-Chorus] Can you hear them calling? From the other side Can you see the lights now? Or are they only lies? [Chorus] Take me to the Promised Land Where the broken understand Take me where the shadows end Where the lost can breathe again [Bridge — half-time] Still I hear a distant voice Saying we still have a choice So I raise my eyes and stand And walk toward the Promised Land [Instrumental break] [Driving bass / tom-heavy drums / distorted guitar feedback / distant choir-like synth] [Final Chorus] Take me to the Promised Land With the fire beneath my hands Take me where the shadows end Where the lost can breathe again If there's a kingdom beyond the night I'll follow every dying light And if I have to walk alone I'll make the darkness lead me home [Outro — fading, repeated] The Promised Land... The Promised Land... Is it waiting there? Is it anywhere?
