a life is lost - you stare and watch - waiting for the things to come
no place to hide - see father's anger at the highest tide - who will be the one to shut my eyes?

I know the pain in your heart - I know all the fears tearing you apart

take one step - closer to the edge - take a step into my world
salvation lies - in a body-bag - salvation from this - world of hurt
now no one can do you a harm - asleep in a place of security
where all your sorrows are fading away

lost - in misery - framed in a tragic picture - from where came that anger?
No one escapes - a torment sealed as fate - these times you don't dare to remember

I know the pain in your heart - I know all the fears tearing you apart

take one step - closer to the edge - take a step into my world
salvation lies - in a body-bag - salvation from this - world of hurt
now no one can do you a harm - asleep in a place of security
where all your sorrows are fading away

a light bulb on its way - it drives and rolls and tumbles
a short descent - a crescent glimpse away - a distant thunder rumbles
now up and fast - across the gulf of space - cast eternal grace - cast eternal grace

you cannot just - run away - or hide away - you cannot dare
so you just - inhale the air - and don't stop to stare - no, you cannot dare

take one step - closer to the edge - take a step into my world
salvation lies - in a body-bag - salvation from this - world of hurt
now no one can do you a harm - asleep in a place of security
where all your sorrows are fading away
