A Thousand Years

Heart beats slow

Hallways and strange folks rove
How to be brave?
How can I love when I\'m afraid I\'m trapped
Watching me stand alone,
All of my doubt suddenly comes crashing
down

One step gone

[Chorus:]

I have died everyday waiting for freedom
Do be afraid for you are hurt
Lost for a thousand years
Hurting for a thousand more? 

Time stands still

Imprisonment in all it is
I will be brave
I will throw everything far away
What\'s stranded is someone, you?
Fear and no rest
Every hour has come to this

One step gone

[Chorus:]

I have died everyday waiting for freedom
Now, do be afraid for we are fleeing
From a thousand tears
Lost here with a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find
A way out, time has brought a cloud
And all for nought 
for a thousand years
Poured out for a thousand more

One step gone
One step gone
