Horizons
All That I Bleed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The future... a mystery
Hold to the dreams of the past
Fear escapes my grasp
I don't look back at the ghost...
At the ghost behind
Take this away
And let me see what my eyes can't see
Leave the past behind us
Never look back
Follow new horizons
Until the fire dies
Misguided by misfortune
Divided through lies
Is it my faith that has been twisted?
And I don't know why
Humanity's my burden
Until the day I die
I hold on to your heart
And I know you'll pull me out
In my dreams I find peace
Apart from the world that I know
All I see distant promise made to be broken
With these lies my dreams turn into nightmares
Now my dreams just disappear
The time has come to let go
Say goodbye to the dreams that now lie broken
I'll go on and find a better day
A child that cries inside me
A whisper from the dark
Which path to take into the twilight
Through out this night
Insanity is my savior
In this foolish stride
I walk this endless road
Through ghosts in my mind

Line by Line Meaning
Sometimes I lose sight
Occasionally I become blinded
The future...a mystery
What lies ahead remains unknown
Hold to the dreams of the past
Clutch onto the aspirations of prior experiences
Fear escapes my grasp
I am unable to overcome my anxieties
I don't look back at the ghost...at the ghost behind
I refuse to ruminate on the specter...of my past
Take this away
Remove this difficulty from me
And let me see what my eyes can't see
Allow me to perceive what is out of sight
Chasing dreams in this insanity
Pursuing aspirations in this madness
Leave the past behind us, never look back
Abandon the past and avoid reminiscing
Follow new horizons, until the fire dies
Pursue fresh goals until the motivation fades
Misguided by misfortune, divided through lies
Deceived by ill fate and separated by falsehoods
Is it my faith that has been twisted?
Has my trust in something been distorted?
And I don't know why, humanity's my burden
And I do not understand why, but I feel responsible for the welfare of people
Until the day I die
Until my last breath
I hold on to your heart and I know you'll pull me out
I cling to your affection and trust you to aid me
In my dreams I find peace, apart from the world that I know
When I am asleep, I achieve relief separate from reality
All I see distant promise made to be broken
I perceive a far-off commitment eager to be shattered
With these lies my dreams turn into nightmares
These falsehoods convert my aspirations into frightening visions
Now my dreams just disappear
Presently, my hopes dissipate
The time has come to let go
Now is the moment to release
Say goodbye to the dreams that now lie broken
Bid farewell to the aspirations that are currently ruined
I'll go on and find a better day
I will persist and discover a more favorable fate
A child that cries inside me
A youth within me whimpers
A whisper from the dark
A murmur originating from the abyss
Which path to take into the twilight
Which direction should I go towards the dusky sky?
Throughout this night
Throughout this evening
Insanity is my savior in this foolish stride
Madness rescues me in this imprudent endeavor
I walk this endless road through ghosts in my mind
I trek along this infinite path amidst phantoms in my thoughts
