[length: 08:28]
[00:25.40]As he travels on the beast of Burden
[00:40.46]Moving up along the mountain side
[00:46.11]As he gazes looking down the valley
[00:49.67]No regrets but his pride
[00:55.01]As he journeys across mountain passes
[00:59.46]Insignificance sweeps over him
[01:04.18]His reflection of the beauty around him
[01:07.59]Feeling empty inside
[01:12.97]He is running from his wildest thoughts
[01:17.30]He is running from his everything
[01:22.13]He is looking now to find something
[01:25.81]Hoping he could be saved
[02:25.62]He’s searching for the answer now
[02:31.28]It’s something that he’s managed to avoid up ’til now
[02:36.90]The conviction that he craves
[02:42.35]He needs to find the answer sooner than later
[02:53.25]Pushed himself to the limits
[02:58.55]He had to strive for all the harder things in life
[03:04.75]But what the cost to give in now
[03:10.18]His life, his time, are the only things that he has
[03:15.62]Life is not a rehearsal, only has this the one chance to get it right
[03:21.02]Living really is only way to know
[03:26.33]Maybe one day they’ll forgive him what he’s done
[03:31.68]With all the pain of lying too early in the grave
[03:36.13]Destiny, no good to hide away
[03:41.10]Penance now, will be his only way
[03:46.52]Understand, no good to run away
[03:51.93]Penance now, will be his saving grace
[03:57.48](Solo)
[05:32.07]Just to make his peace with God
[05:37.75]All is forgivable but he’s left a little late
[05:43.49]Trying something that he’s not
[05:48.83]Is impossible to change such a lot
[05:59.97]He’s taken someone’s life away
[06:05.56]There’s not a day that goes by he regrets what he’s done
[06:11.25]He should have found another way
[06:16.63]But the good book says an eye for an eye
[06:22.15]In reflecting on decisions that were made
[06:27.54]On the judgements that will haunt him ’till his grave
[06:32.90]No-one has the right to take another life
[06:38.16]But in his mind he had no choice so be it
[06:42.57]Destiny, no good to hide away
[06:47.81]Hear us now, we’ll be his only way
[06:53.28]Understand, no good to run away
[06:58.55]Hear us now, we’ll be his saving grace
[07:04.31]Destiny, no good to hide away
[07:09.23]Hear us now, we’ll be his only way
[07:14.71]Understand, no place to run away
[07:20.17]Hear us now, we’ll be his saving grace
[07:49.69]Far, far away
[07:52.69]The man who would be king
[07:55.89]Far, far away
[07:58.72]The man who would be king
[08:01.63]So far away
[08:04.48]The man who would be king
[08:07.65]So far away
[08:10.74]The man who would be king
[08:13.80]Far, far away
[08:16.49]The man who would be king
