A Place To Survive (2005 Digital Remaster)-Van Der Graaf Generator

[01:09.00]It's easy to say, when you're so down [01:12.00]That everything's pointless; [01:17.50]Your eyes burn, your ears howl [01:21.50]Your limbs are disjointed [01:27.00]Barren fields, the barren earth [01:31.00]Never more will it flower [01:35.00]Rub your face and your hands in the dirt: [01:41.00]Now is the hour! [01:44.00]So stand straight, looking over your shoulder; [01:49.00]Walk on, though you fear to arrive; [01:53.00]Don't wait till you know that it's over [01:58.00]Be strong - it's your place to survive [02:16.00]While the holocaust rages around you [02:19.50]Be the eye of the storm; [02:25.00]Though the extent of disaster astounds you [02:28.00]Forearmed is forewarned [02:33.50]You may have passed time in happier ways [02:38.00]But there are other mountains to climb: [02:42.50]You've never lived as you're living today - [02:48.00]Now is the time! [04:08.00]Stand straight, though your back breaks from trying [04:13.00]Walk on - even now you must strive [04:17.50]Don't wait - while you're waiting, you're dying; [04:23.00]Be strong, it's your place to survive [04:32.00]The universe is doubtless [04:35.00]Unfolding just exactly as it should [04:40.50]And these dreams of remorse or foreboding [04:44.00]Just won't do you any good [04:49.50]The joy, the passion, possessions you own [04:54.00]The bitterness and the pain [04:58.00]The end of everything you've ever known... [05:04.00]All these are ordained [05:07.00]Stand straight looking into the future [05:12.00]Walk on - we've each got our own lives [05:16.00]Don't wait for a guru or tutor [05:21.00]Be strong - it's your place to survive [05:25.00]Stand straight, looking over your shoulder [05:29.50]Walk on: though it hurts, you're alive [05:34.00]Don't wait...if you wait it's all over; [05:38.50]Be strong - it's your right to survive
