A Thousand Years

[Verse 1] Day after day I feel myself slowing down What does it mean? The air has changed It's getting harder to breathe Or so it would seem [Pre-Chorus] Sail me away to a distant shore Where everything's fine [Chorus] A thousand years Lost in the blink of an eye If the sky keeps fallin' The world will come tumblin' down In a thousand years [Verse 2] Tell me my friend Can you imagine a place Free of boundaries and lies There's blood on the wind And it's come all of the way From faraway skies [Pre-Chorus] Take me away to a different world Where everything's fine [Chorus] A thousand years Lost in the blink of an eye If the sky keeps fallin' The world will come tumblin' down In a thousand years A thousand years One day for every life Just keep on going We'll find you a home underground In a thousand years [Pre-Chorus] Sail me away to a distant shore Where everything's fine [Chorus] A thousand years Lost in the blink of an eye If the sky keeps fallin' The world will come tumblin' down In a thousand years A thousand years One day for every life Just keep on going We'll find you a home underground In a thousand years
