[Verse 1]
Nightmares have a hold on me
Will this fever ever leave
And wake me from my sleep again?
Careful, I am somewhere else
And I'm walking in the dark, concealing all my scars
I see a new horizon

[Chorus]
Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
Yeah, yeah, eh-yeah
Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
Yeah, yeah, eh-yeah
Running in my sleep

[Verse 2]
A chess game all in black and white
In a charade that made me numb
Where black knights keep me from the day
Angels singing as I fall
From a staircase leading to beyond with hypnotizing songs
Leading to new horizons

[Chorus]
Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
Yeah, yeah, eh-yeah
Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
Yeah, yeah, eh-yeah
Running in my sleep
Running in my sleep

Over the hills and far away
It's not too late to escape
Yeah, yeah, eh-yeah
Over the hills and far away
We're getting nowhere playing safe
Yeah, yeah, eh-yeah
Running in my sleep
