Enemy Without - Arena

Something on the edge of this place

Something on the edge of my mind

Getting closer to me Growing stronger in me all the time

The young foretell a life ahead

The old look back on a life that’s been led

But I — I see nothing

Got too much sand across my head

Sit there waiting for the phone to ring

Hopes in the attic, tied up with string

On a top shelf, bottom drawer

Any place I could ignore

The falling of this hero

No!

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let his life just fade away

Don’t let the child die…

I made a promise — my soul laid bare

Signed and sealed on a wing, on a prayer

But thrown to the darkness

It lies beyond repair

This solemn oath I swore to you

Has been neglected and unused

In a back room, not on show

Anywhere just not to know

The falling of this hero

No!

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let his life just fade away

Don’t let the child die…

I let the orphan fall, tears remained unseen

I let the child die on signal fifteen

I missed the vital signs and all of the meanings

You cannot judge me That’s not your place

There’s a jury for the crime’s of my disgrace

You hide behind those vacant words

Have you seen what I’ve seen?

Have you heard what I’ve heard?

You cannot judge me That’s not your right

This is my room, no key, no light

You stand behind those faithless words

Have you seen what I’ve seen?

Have you heard what I’ve heard?

No!

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let his life just fade away

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let his life just fade away

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let the child die here

Don’t let his life just fade away

Don’t let the child die
