Roo Panes – Land Of The Living lyrics
Where did they go?
That which I cherished and that I wrestled
Don't want to be like the dust that settles
This empire of nothing
I find that I'm king of all these empty halls
That I'm ruled by my own floors
But you can't be an old fire if you were burning with a new flame
So remember that you were never a forgotten name
'Cause I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
'Cause every moment is a chance to define what you want to become
You're not a slave to things you've done
Be brave and be bold, be childish and old
It's the same old story
Every life needs a hope of glory
But you can't be an old fire if you were burning with a new flame
So remember that you were never a forgotten name
'Cause I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
I was born to be free, you were born to free me [4x]
I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
Oh, we'll go back, we'll go back to the beginning
And we'll pickup on the trails of forgotten ways
That which I cherished and that I wrestled
Don't want to be like the dust that settles
This empire of nothing
I find that I'm king of all these empty halls
That I'm ruled by my own floors
But you can't be an old fire if you were burning with a new flame
So remember that you were never a forgotten name
'Cause I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
'Cause every moment is a chance to define what you want to become
You're not a slave to things you've done
Be brave and be bold, be childish and old
It's the same old story
Every life needs a hope of glory
But you can't be an old fire if you were burning with a new flame
So remember that you were never a forgotten name
'Cause I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
I was born to be free, you were born to free me [4x]
I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
Oh, we'll go back, we'll go back to the beginning
And we'll pickup on the trails of forgotten ways
