A New Horizon

As children, we would wander
With strength in every stride
The wheat fields were our kingdom
When you were by my side

Stupid, fearless boys
Far from all the noise
Then others came to play
And our castle went away

Still, I know somewhere within us
As hard as it may seem
We could make the sky our own
By painting what we dream

Since when did people grow afraid of dreaming?
Since when did happiness become commodified?
Why not liberate our imaginations?
Create something substantial, instead of brushing it aside

Why do we listen to the critics and the cynics?
Who says identity is something you can buy?
There's no serenity in living without feeling
Without courage, we'll always live a lie

Brother, we were made to soar
Fly with me forevermore
On a new horizon
Together we could seize the day
There's gotta be a better way
On a new horizon

Since when did people grow afraid of color?
Does anybody know what we're running from?
Am I brave enough to stretch beyond my borders?
I'm frightened of what I have become

Brother, could we break these chains?
Harness fate and take the reigns
On a new horizon
Together could we seize the day?
There's gotta be a better way
On a new horizon

This could be our chance
A leap in the expanse
Burning bright
Could we colour past the lines
And draft our own designs
For a future that's ours
A freedom and light

Brother, we were born with wings
We are meant for greater things
On a new horizon
What happens when two worlds collide?
Somewhere in that great divide

I can see it
That new horizon
It's waiting in the sky
A new horizon
