Elysium
Valiant Hearts Lyrics

Everyone thinks they don't belong
Many people feel like they don't fit in

Then they realize they did all along
But eventually they come to understand that they were meant to be here

All along
From the very beginning

I still want to be a part of this world
I still have a strong desire to be a part of this world

I'll watch the stars as they
I will observe the stars as they

All cascade (all cascade), all cascade (I still want to be a part of this world)
Gently fall and descend, just like me wanting to belong here

I'll take the hills and make
I will climb up the hills and create

A new landscape (I still want to be a part of this world)
A fresh and unique environment, while still having that same desire to be a part of this world

Walking through the snow
Moving through the snow-covered ground

My footsteps ought to show
My footprints should reveal

Where I've been and where I'll go
Where I have already been and where I will continue to go

In the cold of Alaska
In the freezing temperatures of Alaska

Where the mercury drops below (below)
Where the temperature falls below zero

Zero, zero, zero, zero
To absolute zero

And our bodies all slow (slow)
And our bodies start to move at a slower pace

Down
Lower

Frozen where they can't be found
Frozen and hidden from sight

Underneath the avalanche
Beneath a mass of snow and ice

But I didn't even make a sound
But I didn't make any noise

Thought you made me a promise that we would never break
Believed you made a vow that we would never separate

Thought I was sleeping, but my eyes were always wide awake
Believed I was asleep, but I was always fully aware

And now, in hindsight, I see what we had and what we are
And now, looking back, I understand the value of what we had and what we have become

You left me frostbitten but you ain't even get a scar
You left me emotionally hurt, but you didn't experience any consequences

All the long nights, all the battles
Through all the long nights and challenging conflicts

Patch me up just to watch me unravel
You would temporarily fix me only to see me fall apart

What sore sight, what can you handle?
What painful and difficult situation can you endure?

When my heart's at the end of your barrel
When my emotions are vulnerable to your actions

Ahah. Oh-oh-oh
Non-lexical vocables expressing an emotional response

Everyone thinks they don't belong
Many people feel like they don't fit in

Then they realize they did all along
But eventually they come to understand that they were meant to be here

All along
From the very beginning
