Send "Intro" Ringtone to Cell

We didn't need a story, we didn't need a real world
We just had to keep walking
And we became the stories, we became the places
We were the lights, the deserts, the faraway worlds
We were you before you even existed

Carry on, carry on, carry on
And after us the flood
Carry on, carry on, carry on
Our silver horn it leads the way
Banners of gold shine
In the cold, in the cold, in the cold
Footprints of snow
Blind from the road
Hail!

We carry on, carry on
Follow us, we are one
The battle's fought, the deed is done
Our silver hum runs dark and strong
Hand to the heart, lips to the horn
We can stand ?
Hand on my breast, I'll keep you warm
Hail!

    General Comment:Does anyone know what they mean by "we were you before you even existed"? I get what the stanza before that is getting at...I just don't exactly know this part. Thanks.

    My Opinion:That song is stunning.
    I guess the words can speak for themselfs, no need to waste time interpretatin' them.. just feeling.

    Lyric Correction:The line at the end is:

    "We can save, we can be reborn"

    A song that finally deserves the word "epic".

    General Comment:First song of the most fantastic road trip ever taken.

    Or, this song, on repeat, as the soundtrack to the best road trip ever.
