Testo di A Place to Survive

It's easy to say, when you're so down That everything's pointless Your eyes burn, your ears howl Your limbs are disjointed Barren fields, the barren earth Never more will it flower Rub your face and your hands in the dirt Now is the hour! So stand straight, looking over your shoulder Walk on, though you fear to arrive Don't wait till you know that it's over Be strong - it's your place to survive While the holocaust rages around you Be the eye of the storm Though the extent of disaster astounds you Forearmed is forewarned You may have passed time in happier ways But there are other mountains to climb You've never lived as you're living today - Now is the time! Stand straight, though your back breaks from trying Walk on - even now you must strive Don't wait, while you're waiting, you're dying Be strong - it's your place to survive The universe is doubtless unfolding Just exactly as it should And these dreams of remorse or foreboding Just won't do you any good The joy, the passion, possessions you own The bitterness and the pain The end of everything you've ever known All these are ordained Stand straight looking into the future Walk on--we've each got our own lives Don't wait for a guru or tutor Be strong--it's your place to survive Stand straight, looking over your shoulder Walk on: Though it hurts, you're alive Don't wait - if you wait it's all over Be strong - it's your right to survive
