Intro
83 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We just had to keep walking
And we became the stories, we became the places
We were the lights, the deserts, the faraway worlds
We were you before you even existed
Carry on, carry on, carry on
And after us the flood
Our silver horn it leads the way
Banners of gold shine
In the cold, in the cold, in the cold
Footprints of snow, blind from the road
Hail!
We carry on, carry on
Follow us, we are one
The battle's fought, the deed is done
Our silver hum runs deep and strong
Hand to the heart, lips to the horn
We can save, we can be reborn
Head on my breast, I'll keep you warm
Hail!

We didn't need a story, we didn't need a real world
Our journey wasn't about finding a plot, or existing in reality
We just had to keep walking
Our only task was to keep moving forward
And we became the stories, we became the places
As we journeyed, our experiences became the tales and locations we visited
We were the lights, the deserts, the faraway worlds
We transformed into the features of the places we traveled, the brightness, the sandy stretches, and the distant planets
We were you before you even existed
Our journey was an archetype, paving the way for those who followed and lived after us
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Continuing onward, never stopping
And after us the flood
After our time, things will change
Our silver horn it leads the way
Our horn guides us on our journey
Banners of gold shine
The golden flag glimmered proud
In the cold, in the cold, in the cold
Through the frozen terrain, we soldiered on
Footprints of snow, blind from the road
Our path was covered with snow, but we still marched forward
Hail!
Our accomplishment of overcoming the odds, hail!
Follow us, we are one
We unite to form one entity for the journey
The battle's fought, the deed is done
Our fight is over, and the mission is accomplished
Our silver hum runs deep and strong
Our sound carries far and is powerful
Hand to the heart, lips to the horn
We express our passion through our actions and instruments
We can save, we can be reborn
We can be redeemed and can start anew
Head on my breast, I'll keep you warm
Together, we'll find comfort in each other's embrace
Hail!
Our achievement deserves recognition, hail!

No need to run
No need to leave town
You already have
Return back home
Your real home within your mind
Just turn around
Step into the vastness beyond imagination
The stately stately calm within snd live your life there
Come inside
Have no fear
Trust the silence
Step inside the
door is open your
bed’s made
Welcome home..

@@just-a-random-person-on-utube what's even more tragic is they have many more albums arguably just as great, and that ONE song is all some people bother with, cuz that's what their friends like I guess.
