The Talisman Iron Maiden

[Intro]
When I stand and look about the port
And contemplate my life
Will I ever see my countrymen again?
As the captain calls us on the deck
I take my things and walk
To the harbourside
I glance back one last time

[Verse 1]
Fleeing our nation
Our problems we leave behind
Ships by the tenfold
Sail out on the tide
We are pleased to be out
And embracing the open sea
Free from our troubles
And more free from thee

[Verse 2]
Inheritors unfulfilled reason behind us
We flee from what is not, what is will be
We flee the earth and face our harsh reality
Will death be low mist that hangs on the sea?

[Verse 3]
We run from evil tongues
Rash judgments, selfish men
Never to be seen on these shores again
As we sail into ocean size and lose sight of land
A face of contentment around in the air
We're off now to seek all our fortunes
To the land of our dreams
