Beyond The Realms Of Death Lyrics - Blind Guardian

He's had enough 

He couldn't take anymore 

He found a place in his mind 

And slammed the door 

No matter how they tried 

They couldn't understand 

They washed and dressed him 

Fed him by hand 

Yeah! I've left the world behind 

I'm safe here in my mind 

I'm free to speak with my own kind 

This is my life, this is my life 

I'll decide not you 

Withdrawn he sat there 

Staring into space 

No sign of life 

Would flicker on his face 

Until one day he smiled 

It seemed as though with pride 

The wind kissed him goodbye 

And then he died 

Yeah! I've left the world behind 

I'm safe here in my mind 

I'm free to speak with my own kind 

This is my life, this is my life 

I'll decide not you 

Keep the world with all its sin 

It's not fit for livin' in 

Yeah! I will start again 

It can take forever, and ever 

Whatever, whenever, but I'll still win 

How many like him 

Are they still 

Who to us all 

Seem to have lost the will 

They lie in thousands 

Lank and lost 

Is knowledge worth this bitter cost 

Beyond the realms of death
