And I'm walking in the dark, concealing all my scars
A4 Am
I see a new horizon
E
Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
A
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah
E
Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
A
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah

Angels singing as I fall

From a staircase leading to beyond with hypnotizing songs

Leading to new horizons

Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
