The March of Time

Am I invisible? Far away from the safety line
And the petty little lives of all Mankind
With my eyes closed - and my aching head inclined
Can you see me now?
Keeping in step with the March of Time

I write the verse and I find the rhyme
I listen to the rhythm but the heartbeat's mine
I'm singing along - to 'One for the Vine'
Can you see me now?
Keeping in step with the March of Time

Am I invisible? Far away from the screaming minds
Waiting for a taste of the blood red wine
Don't look close - you won't like what you find
Can you see me now? Keeping in step with the March of Time

Staying on guard with your powder dry
Got to be quite ready when the missiles fly
Fighting the tide - is an clear act of crime
Can you see me now? Keeping in step with the March of Time

Playing all the parts - It hurts when they laugh
But keep that smile spread wide across your face
Till your head splits in half
Just try to keep the wolves at bay

Let them joke about you - They don't know you well
Never let them see into your mind - They'd go spinning down to hell
Just try to keep the wolves at bay - Don't fight against what they say
'Cos your under attack night and day
One moment of trust could leave you lost and betrayed

Far away from the safety line
And the petty little lives of all Mankind
Keeping in step with the March of Time
I write the verse and I find the rhyme
I listen to the rhythm but the heartbeat?s mine
Keeping in touch with the March of Time

Let the days and years erase me
Let life go by, decay the signs, and fade me
Let the days and years erase me
Let life go by, decay the signs, and fade me
Let the days and years erase me
Let life go by, decay the signs, and fade me from this world
