"Clear Horizon" lyrics - ALTER BRIDGE

ALTER BRIDGE
"Clear Horizon"

If I died tonight
Would the question still remain?
Did I live for what was right?
Did I live this life in vain?
A simulated lie
Just a spark that's sure to fade
Then I start to wonder why
I couldn't see the apparition from the start

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like a counterfeit, I've had enough of this
I bought the dream and it let me down so
I wanna take a risk, I wanna learn to live
To find the one thing that can't be sold

This might be paradise
A mirage that's in decay
In this world it's hard to find
Something real among the wreckage of our hope

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like a counterfeit, I've had enough of this
I bought the dream and it let me down

[Chorus:]
Awake, now I see the clear horizon
It was just out of reach from the start

If I take the chance
Will you cross the line with me
And amend this circumstance?
Only this eternal truth can set you free

[Pre-Chorus:]
Like a counterfeit, I've had enough of this
I bought the dream and it let me down

[Chorus:]
Awake, now I see the clear horizon
It was just out of reach from the start

[Bridge:]
Pure escape
Pure escape
Pure escape
It's not too late
Lay me down in the field, I'm letting go
There is beauty to behold, a pure escape
Just take me now to a place where I am whole
To fill the void that I have known, it's not too late

[Pre-Chorus:]
I wanna take a risk, I wanna learn to live
To find the one thing that can't be sold

[Chorus:]
Awake, now I see the clear horizon
It was just out of reach from the start
The day we can see the clear horizon
Is the moment we save our broken hearts

[Outro:]
The clear horizon
A pure escape
The clear horizon
