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
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

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
Take me away to a different world where everything's fine

Chorus: 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

Sail me away to a distant shore, where everything's fine

Chorus: 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
