Elysium Lyrics - Islands - Bear's Den

Brother do you believe in an afterlife? 

Our souls will both collide 

Some great Elysium 

Way up in the sky 

Free from our shackles, our chains, our mouths, our brains 

We'll open all the gates 

We will walk careless, straight into the light 

I've never felt so enlightened 

Every page I turn 

I only find myself 

Feeling more alone 

Posing questions to a silent universe 

My very thoughts are cursed 

They just seem to multiply 

Forever in my mind 

Brother don't grow up 

Brother please never grow up 

Just hold out against the night 

And guard your hope with your life 

For the darkness, she will come 

Oh and you have nowhere left to run 

Oh but your eyes are wider than mine, but they'll never see? 

Just hope that age does not erase all that you've seen 

Don't let bitterness become you 

Your only hopes are within you 

Just hold out against the night 

And guard your hope with your life
