On The Edge Of Dispair
The March Of Time

Lying there - With spiders in your hair 
No one seems to care if you survive
Blood on your face - All over the place
No one seems to care if you live or you die

We're the same you know
Putting up walls and dodging the stones
We're the same you know
Walking in the crowd, but living alone
Don't let this life decay to misery and hate
Don't throw it away – don’t leave it too late

Lying there - On the edge of despair
This is where I should have been
Black and blue - All battered and bruised
This is where I should have been

Lying there - With death in the air
Too young and unprepared for such distress
Hanging on - But not for too long
Too young and unprepared for such distress

We're the same you know
Putting up walls and dodging the stones
We're the same you know
Walking in the crowd, but living alone
Don't let this life decay to misery and hate
Don't throw it away – don’t leave it too late

There will be a time and place
You'll be sure to find me there
Praying that I won't be too late
To take you from the edge of despair

We're the same you know
Putting up walls and dodging the stones
We're the same you know
Walking in the crowd, but living alone
Don't let this life decay to misery and hate
Don't throw it away – don’t leave it too late

Am I invisible? Far away from the safety line
And the petty little lives of all Mankind
With my eyes closed - and my aching head inclined
Can you see me now?
Keeping in step with the March of Time

I write the verse and I find the rhyme
I listen to the rhythm but the heartbeat's mine
I'm singing along - to 'One for the Vine' 
Can you see me now?
Keeping in step with the March of Time

Am I invisible? Far away from the screaming minds
Waiting for a taste of the blood red wine
Don't look close - you won't like what you find
Can you see me now? Keeping in step with the March of Time

Staying on guard with your powder dry
Got to be quite ready when the missiles fly
Fighting the tide - is an clear act of crime
Can you see me now? Keeping in step with the March of Time

Playing all the parts - It hurts when they laugh
But keep that smile spread wide across your face
Till your head splits in half
Just try to keep the wolves at bay 

Let them joke about you - They don't know you well
Never let them see into your mind - They'd go spinning down to hell
Just try to keep the wolves at bay - Don't fight against what they say 
'Cos your under attack night and day
One moment of trust could leave you lost and betrayed

Far away from the safety line
And the petty little lives of all Mankind
Keeping in step with the March of Time
I write the verse and I find the rhyme
I listen to the rhythm but the heartbeat’s mine
Keeping in touch with the March of Time

Let the days and years erase me
Let life go by, decay the signs, and fade me 
Let the days and years erase me
Let life go by, decay the signs, and fade me
Let the days and years erase me
Let life go by, decay the signs, and fade me from this world
