Escaping fame and fortune across the globe
No home or dreams, she was only eighteen
Stuck like glue to the streets to roam
Deprived of life as the leaves of the evergreen
Of the evergreen

So take your bit of light, and explore your bitter side
You'll be surprised that what you find
Let's free your mind
Let's free your mind
So every now and then, a girl will take your hand
And so a journey starts, leaving footsteps in our hearts
Leaving footsteps in our hearts

Escaping fame and fortune across the globe
No home or dreams, she was only eighteen
Stuck like glue to the streets to roam
Deprived of life as the leaves of the evergreen
Of the evergreen

They say life's just a simple quest for riches, oh
With a funny way of settling just the way it should
Shackles and rusty chains, I will never be tied down
I'm proudly free - And I control my destiny

So be the vicar, be the captain of your future
Watch as boundaries begin to crumble into melodies
We are the saints, we are the authors of this very age
We bring down governments, and send ministries to their graves
We are past futurists, we rule the world so gracefully
Writing our music silently, we replicate the imagin'ry
Call me what you want, judge it any way you bloody please
'Cause you can't take this moment away from me
