[Verse 1] I'd like to pay attention to the world, but the world abandoned us, oh so very long ago. At least that's what your nuns and prophets said, when they were choking on their blood, and they spoke from hell below. [Pre-Chorus] Why do we leed our shadows into the night, just to be exposed by walking straight into the light? [Verse 2] If all who look for refuge become lost, then maybe they're the problem, and they'll never find their way. Assume that everybody can be bought, either that or truly hopeless, if they're never even paid. [Pre-Chorus] Why do we chase that which we can't outrun, when knowing fate is just a game that's never really won? [Chorus] Sail away, out to a distant isle. (Ooh... ooh...) Set your sights, where man can soar. Fly away, to where there is no mile, (Aah... aah...) no way to measure, no more war. [Verse 3] I thought that people can be trusted, but they always plead the fifth, right before they disappear. If the soul were so rebellious , why do we stay together, through the months and through the years? [Pre-Chorus] Why do we feal the pull of what we hear, if we were truly free and we have nothing left to fear? [Bridge] Should I, climb to the moon and fall away, or forever tred the ocean, till I'm drowning in my sleep? If I, fly even closer to the sun, will I burn through my emotions, or will I see my own reflection? [Chorus] Sail away, out to a distant isle. (Ooh... ooh...) Set your sights, where man can soar. Fly away, to where there is no mile, (Aah... aah...) no way to measure, no more war. Sail away, out to a distant isle. (Ooh... ooh...) Set your sights, where man can soar. Fly away, to where there is no mile, (Aah... aah...) no way to measure, no more war. Sail away, out to a distant isle. (Ooh... ooh...) Set your sights, where man can soar. Fly away, to where there is no mile, (Aah... aah...) no way to measure, no more war.
