[Verse 1] People dream of distant places Because where they stand today Is not where they're meant to be Faraway worlds calling softly Or distant days long gone Gentle landscapes, memories Whispering through the breeze [Pre-Chorus 1] Searching, walking Till they fall Wandering on Till strength is gone They'll collapse along the way Perhaps that's still A blessed ending after all [Chorus 1] But those without the strength to walk And those whose hearts can't settle down Those entangled in their ties Bound upon their cross Nailed to their fate Even that journey is denied At least may they find Peace within their minds May salvation come in time I can only pray Though I'm powerless the same May every aching heart Find rest in gentle sleep May every soul find peace [Verse 2] Some are born beneath the weight Of chains they didn't choose Some are held by loving hands That somehow cage them too The road goes on forever But their feet are bound in place Only dreaming of the journey That they'll never taste [Pre-Chorus 2] If they can't walk Let them fly in dreams If they can't run Let their spirits soar free Though the body's trapped And the heart is torn May they find a home Where they can be reborn [Chorus 2] For those without the strength to walk And those whose hearts can't settle down Those entangled in their ties Bound upon their cross Nailed to their fate Even that journey is denied At least may they find Peace within their minds May salvation come in time I can only pray Though I'm powerless the same May every aching heart Find rest in gentle sleep May every weary soul find peace [Bridge] We're all stumbling in the dark Reaching for a light Some of us keep moving Some can't take the fight But whether still or wandering We all deserve the grace Of knowing we're not forgotten In this lonely place [Chorus 3 - Final] Those without the strength to walk Those whose hearts can't settle down Those entangled in their ties Carrying their cross Bearing their weight Though the journey is denied May you find Peace within your mind May salvation be yours in time I stand here powerless But I pray the same May every broken heart Find rest in gentle sleep May all our souls find peace [Outro] Left alone here Standing still, frozen in place May the light shine down And touch my face May it find me too In this empty space May the light Shine through --- *A prayer for all those who carry burdens too heavy, and for those who can only watch and hope.*
