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
Neighbours jump walling
Let me come through
Let me take you
'Way over the line
Over the line
Over the line
Over the line
And we're away to be where there's life
Shake the will to comply
Fears don't try me
Tears don't cry me
And we're away 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 away to be where there's life
Be where there's life
Be where there's life
Be where there's life
Be where there's life
Dig out your soul, cos here we go
We gotta move, it's what we do
Let me come through
Let me take you
And we're away 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
Listen / Watch
