from these shores where we belong i have seen the the land beyond where the lord is strange and strong i have seen the the land beyond there s no telling who ll be dead when the pale horse is turning red and the tongues will burn in vain and everything will feel the same there s no patience there s no peace i have seen the land beyond where the gravestones never cease i have seen the the land beyond through the troubles of years the heavenly apparition appears and we re haunted by our own minds and the spirit comes in the disguise from these shores where we belong i have seen the the land beyond i ll be there and i ll be gone i have seen the the land beyond
