Lost In A Lost World - Iron Maiden

作词：Steve Harris

作曲：Steve Harris

All is not it seems to be on the outside

Sometimes what appears to be is a show

What shows in the face is only a mirror

We all have some better places to go

We don't know just

what we have 'til we've lost it

Until that time comes

and know that it's gone

So hard to say things

that we should have uttered long ago

Tear myself away from thoughts in my head

The people worshiping the sun

And all the children point up to the sky

They see the eagle as it floats on the wind

And they follow with their spirits high

Buffalo roam on the plain

We walk into the flames but dance for rain

The hallowed dead in sacred ground

and the elders

And we wash away their sins for them

Feel the spirits of the old ones

standing proud upon their race

And the testament to ancestors

that are never to retrace

Burn the flame of innocence

as they ride into the sun

Thinking now of our forefathers

that are lying dead upon

Holy ground and sacred earth now

Revisit stolen youth

Lost in a lost world

Buried on sacred ground

Lost in a lost world

Lying on sacred ground

Lost in a lost world

Buried on sacred ground

Lost in a lost world

Lying on sacred ground

Lost in a lost world

Standing on sacred ground

Lost in a lost world

Lying on sacred ground

Will we ever heal our old wounds

Like forever darkness worn

fighting for their lives again

So come on now don't be afraid

This is where destiny lies

Just to let us breathe again

Put upon this earth to wander

And to walk forever lost

With the ashes of our enemies

To live among our ghosts

Of our past fear nothing

Life is but a better path to joy

Nowhere to go nowhere to run

Our whole nation overrun

Itself existence under threat

And soon will be none of us left

Remember names of all our dead now

And enemies that fled

Reaching for our sky forever free

A sadness that is proud

As the clouds all drift away now

Until we meet again
