Line In The Sand

In a world full of hypocrites

That speak of tolerance and love

It’s hard to find a single one that lives the things they speak of

You speak of love and respect

But there is so much hate in your words

As soon as you disagree

The boundary lines are all lost and blurred

Turn in that crooked smile

Seething through gritted teeth

You hide your true intentions, but they’re crystal clear to me

Don’t we all know that crossing a line in the sand

Will be what unites us?

History lies in the palm of our hand

And if death comes knocking

You can tell him that I’m still around

‘Cos I’m here fighting til they break these walls to the ground

And tear the flag down

Your words have meant nothing

Their presence subliminal

You monopolize acceptance

And your hatred is criminal

Turn in that crooked smile seething through gritted teeth

You hide your true intentions

But they’re crystal clear to me

Don’t we all know that crossing a line in the sand

Will be what unites us?

History lies in the palm of our hand

And if death comes knocking

You can tell him that I’m still around

‘Cos I’m here fighting til they break these walls to the ground

And I’m here still fighting, the guns and cannons will sound

If freedom of choice is a god-given

Right, then who are you to take it away?

You pompous Pharisee

You have nothing on me

This is my line in the sand

Tell me, where do you stand?

Will you stand up for what’s right

Or back down from the fight?

Victory or death! (You have nothing on me)

Victory or death

You hide your true intentions but they’re clear to me

Don’t we all know that crossing a line in the sand

Will be what unites us?

History lies in the palm of our hand

And if death comes knocking

You can tell him that I’m still around

‘Cos I’m here fighting til they break these walls to the ground
