[Verse 1]
Where did they go?
That which I cherished and that I wrestled
Don't want to be like the dust that settles
This empire of nothing
I find that I'm king of all these empty halls
That I'm ruled by my own floors

[Pre-Chorus]
But you can't be an old fire if
You were burning with a new flame
So remember that
You were never a forgotten name

[Chorus]
'Cause I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned to play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play

[Verse 2]
'Cause every moment
Is a chance to define what you want to become
You're not a slave to things you've done
Be brave and be bold
Be childish and old, it's the same old story
Every life needs a hope of glory
[Pre-Chorus]
But you can't be an old fire if
You were burning with a new flame
So remember that
You were never a forgotten name

[Chorus]
'Cause I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play

[Interlude]
I was born to be free, you were born to free me
I was born to be free, you were born to free me
I was born to be free, you were born to free me
I was born to be free, you were born to free me

[Non-Lyrical Vocal Bridge]

[Chorus]
I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
I hear the voices of my childhood singing
It's the world beyond those doorways where we used to play
I know a land called the Land of the Living
It's the world beyond those curtains where we learned the play
Oh, we'll go back, we'll go back to the beginning
And we'll pickup on the trails of forgotten ways
