lyrics

As a boy i'd dream away
Dream away of what my life would be
I walked a narrow path
Took me straight to the vacant see

So I, set sail and headed home
Until the angel captured me
So I, set goodbye to my fathers light
And sunk down in the sea

I grew up and I hit the road
It was wider than I thought it be
It took me straight to a hollow land
Like a desert in the summer heat

There were bones and there were lies
There were people running after things
So I, set goodbye to the desert land
Tried to open my eyes to see

As a man I searched for truth
Met a man who said he died for me
Took my heart and made it clean
Took me straight to the gates of peace

So I bent down and began to cry
Was lifted up out of the dark dark sea
So I said goodbye to my hollow life
Was blind but now I see
