Horizont Lyrics in English In Extremo

“Horizont” is a raw confession of guilt that feels like reading someone’s diary at the exact moment they realize what they have lost. The singer ticks off a heartbreaking scorecard of wrongs—“Tausend Mal” (a thousand times) he lied, wounded, and disappointed the one he loved. Every verse piles on another layer of remorse until the weight is almost tangible. Yet, rather than wallow, the lyrics transform the shame into vivid imagery: the narrator imagines standing where the horizon meets the sea, a distant edge of the world where he hopes for one last chance to be found and forgiven.

At its core, the song balances despair with a fragile hope. The storm the singer “harvests” is one he himself once sowed, acknowledging that every painful consequence was self-made. Still, the repeated vision of the shoreline becomes a symbol of redemption—a place just out of reach, yet clearly visible. Listeners are invited to feel both the sting of past mistakes and the pull of possible reconciliation, wrapped in In Extremo’s signature blend of folk-rock energy and medieval flair. “Horizont” ultimately reminds us that even after “a thousand” missteps, the human heart keeps scanning the skyline for a chance to make things right.
