Track: To Be Where There's Life

Lyrics
Day's turning to night
Pray for the light
Let me come through
Let me take you way over the line

Everyone falling
Everyone falling
Dreamers come crawling
Neighbors jump walling
Let me come through
Let me take you way over the line
(Over the line, over the line)

And we're way to be where there's life
Shake the will to comply
Fears don't try me
Tears don't cry me

And we're way to be where there's life
When we come call out
Everything's sold out
TV just closed down
There's nothing on the news now

Fears don't try me
Tears don't cry me
And we're way to be where there's life
Be where there's life
(Be where there's life, be where there's life)

Dig out your soul, 'cause here we go
We gotta move, it's what we do
Let me come through
Let me take you
And we'll wake to be where there's life
(Be where there's life, be where there's life)

Take you over the light
Under the signs
In through locked doors
To secret floors
Where we've lost 'em before
