J An update which was well-worth the wait. Every track here was enhanced and improved substantially. Something to Live For saw the most improvements. Living on the Edge of Time is also considerably improved. Great job! Favorite track: Something to Live For.

Standing on the edge of my destruction, safe inside the spirit is Your name Holding on to covenants and promises, so now I say don't let me go With everything I've done I have salvation, in everything You've done I have release You're overcoming every single curse that used to bind me. I surrender. Don't let me go! Without you I am nothing in the darkness, a voice out in the wild without a name I'm more alive without myself inside you, and I will breathe. Don't let me go! Standing on the edge of our destruction, safe inside the Spirit is Your name. I stand inside your shelter and your mercy, and I will scream! Don't let me go! From where I am it's all within your hands. Here and now Your afterglow is where I stand From where I stand it's all within Your hands. Here and now Your afterglow is where I am

I've been trying to call I been on my own for long enough Maybe you can show me how to love, maybe I'm going through withdrawals You don't even have to do too much You can turn me on with just a touch, baby I look around and Sin City's cold and empty No one's around to judge me I can't see clearly when you're gone I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night When I'm like this, you're the one I trust I'm running out of time 'Cause I can see the sun light up the sky So I hit the road in overdrive, baby Oh, the city's cold and empty No one's around to judge me I can't see clearly when you're gone I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights I can't sleep until I feel your touch I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night When I'm like this, you're the one I trust I'm just walking by to let you know (by to let you know) I can never say it on the phone (say it on the phone) Will never let you go this time I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights I can't sleep until I feel your touch I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night When I'm like this, you're the one I trust

Staring through the windows it's an ordinary life A painted house, another dream, a momentary strife Looking backward isn't easy staring at the walls I've stood right here a thousand times but nothing comes at all When will you be forever now Echoes in the hall I'm waiting for the past to call But they don't come at all A picture of the world we knew Not knowing what we'd find I'm standing on this line Living on the edge of time! These are the streets I used to run where someone knew my name The thoughts come back to cover me but nothing's quite the same It's quiet and it's restless out here staring at the sea These memories are antidotes of “how it used to be” When will you be forever now Echoes in the hall I'm waiting for the past to call But they don't come at all A picture of the world we knew Not knowing what we'd find I'm standing on this line Living on the edge of time! We don't like parties but come down please We have open doors for what you need The music might just fit the song You know the words it won't last long I've waited out here all these years But now I'm moving past the tears this time This time, this time, this time... Living on the edge of time!

Do you believe in Heaven above? Do you believe in love? Don't tell a lie, don't be false or untrue It all comes back to you Open fire! On my burning heart I've never been lucky in love My defenses are down A kiss or a frown I can't survive on my own If a girl walks in and draws her name in my heart I'll turn and run away Every day, we've all been led astray It's hard to be lucky in love It gets in your eyes It's making you cry Don't know what to do Don't know what to do You're looking for love Calling Heaven above Send me an angel Send me an angel Right now, right now Send me an angel Send me an angel Right now, right now Empty dreams can only disappoint In a room behind your smile But don't give up, don't give up (Give up, give up, give up) You can be lucky in love It gets in your eyes It's making you cry Don't know what to do Don't know what to do You're looking for love Calling Heaven above Send me an angel Send me an angel Right now, right now
5.
What do I have to say? A broken thought is useless It's strange how I watch you play And how I stand here helpless You never look quite the same Although you always seem to be I don't even know your name I guess the one to blame is me Will I ever need you Or feel you here again? Will I ever touch your heart? Will I ever touch you? It seems like it was yesterday Standing there watching you dreaming I couldn't find the words to say That deep inside I was screaming Can I even try to find you? I might end up so far from feeling Maybe I need something new Maybe I don't need anything Will I ever need you Or feel you here again? Will I ever touch your heart? Will I ever touch your heart? (Solo) Will I ever need you Or feel you here again? Will I ever touch your heart? Will I ever touch you? (Breakdown) What do I have to say? A broken thought is useless Will I ever need you? Will I ever need you Or feel you here again? Will I ever touch your heart? Will I ever touch you? Will I ever need you? Will I ever need you? Will I ever need you? Will I ever need you? What do I have to say? Will I ever need you? Will I ever need you? Will I ever need you?

It's where you are deep inside of me It's in the way you confide in me It's who you are when I'm falling down in time And where you live in this deepest love of mine It's who you are when I cling to what you've said With words alive on the tips of angels' breath It's where you are deep inside of me It's who you are when I'm falling down in time And where you live in this deepest love of mine It's who you are when I cling to what you've said With words alive on the tips of angels' breath You love me Can you see? I'm in between where feathers fall you're leading me.
8.
I see your twisted heart is turning back to where you were before I know I need you now when everything inside has lost control Come back to me You are everything Why can't you see this is where you need to be In silence, in darkness Without provisions on us Forgive me, be with me now Forever here in silence I found you in the rain with all the lies we've tried to use before I know that love will last This is our chance to prove ourselves once more Come back to me You are everything Why can't you see this is where you need to be In silence, in darkness Without provisions on us Forgive me, be with me now Forever here in silence

Danger! 04:52
I'll cover you from harm A sequence of alarms That tell you when to be awake for this end Righteous innocence Built into our defense An awakening is taking away the fear inside You've gone too far this time You're in danger You dance across the line It's only danger The more you want, the more you'll find It's danger, danger, danger, danger! I'll take away the fear It's never been so clear The intrusion of allusions in your mind Destroy the innocents For the betterment of sense It's a picture of a photograph of life You've gone too far this time You're in danger You dance across the line It's only danger The more you want, the more you'll find It's danger, danger, danger, danger!
10.
It doesn't matter how far down you fall It doesn't matter where you slept last night It doesn't matter which street you walk down You're not alone A higher source can be your guiding light Calling on Love It's what You are It's where You are Calling Love It's where You are Calling Love Calling Love Calling Love It's what You are It doesn't matter how long you've been gone It doesn't matter how hard you tried to fight! It doesn't matter what you've done You know you're not alone? There's only one salvation on the darkest night. Calling on Love It's what You are It's where You are Calling Love It's where You are Calling Love Calling Love Calling Love It's what You are It doesn't matter what you've done You know you're not alone? Calling on Love It's what You are It's where You are Calling Love It's where You are Calling Love Calling Love Calling Love It's what You are Calling Love It's where You are!

Circles 03:41
We couldn't turn around Til we were upside down I'll be the bad guy now But no, I ain't too proud I couldn't be there Even when I tried You don't believe it We do this every time Seasons change and our love went cold Feed the flame 'cause we can't let it go Run away, but we're running in circles Run away, run away I dare you to do something I'm waiting on you again So I don't take the blame Run away, but we're running in circles Run away, run away, run away Let go I got a feeling that it's time to let go I say so I knew that this was doomed from the get-go You thought that it was special, special And I still hear the echoes (the echoes) I got a feeling that it's time to let it go, let it go Seasons change and our love went cold Feed the flame 'cause we can't let it go Run away, but we're running in circles Run away, run away I dare you to do something I'm waiting on you again So I don't take the blame Run away, but we're running in circles Run away, run away, run away Maybe you don't understand what I'm going through It's only me What you got to lose? Make up your mind, tell me What are you gonna do? It's only me Let it go Seasons change and our love went cold Feed the flame 'cause we can't let it go Run away, but we're running in circles Run away, run away I dare you to do something I'm waiting on you again So I don't take the blame Run away, but we're running in circles Run away, run away, run away

Misery 03:59
Misery, the feeling you felt from him Invisibly, you felt you were dealt from sin This misery, the enrapture of you inside And visibly, a trusting side of you died When you lost out on love When you lost out in life When the hard truth became known When the proof followed you home Misery, the bruises will heal from him And visibly, no more excuses to make for him When you lost out on love When you lost out in life When the hard truth became known When the proof followed you home Do you have to understand How things don't turn out like you planned Or do you ask yourself why? You watched this anger grow...and grow When you lost out on love When you lost out in life When the hard truth became known When the proof followed you home
14.
Power and prestige Another conquest Pressed to succeed You step on the rest Is this what you live for? Where is the reward? What's the bottom line? We talk about values that we undermine Is this what you live for? I don't need more This is something to live for I don't need more Something No one will pay you, or give you a prize That's not the point Everyone dies So what do you live for? She is my reason Out of this white You'll never be richer than me in my eyes Is this what you live for? I don't need more This is something to live for I don't need more Something It's a shame, so many days could've been better You just threw them away Is this what you live for? I don't need more This is something to live for I don't need more Something
