Lyrics
A Line In The Sand
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Our stars are never aligned
awaiting the unfeasible's
a failure of your own design
you said you need to decide
but if you're not gonna listen then don't bother to ask for advice
I close my eyes, I close my eyes
I fail to recognize the look that I knew I'd despise
a murderer in a thief's disguise
I'm about to live the life you thought we'd live together
I said you'd leave, you said you wouldn't
I guess I knew you better
I should have seen the writing on the walls
should have had the guts to call but you don't have the right to
It seemed like it was all planned
right down to the compliments you gave me the back of your hand
I guess there's nothing to say
a line in the sand has no meaning if you walk away
It's not like you do this normally, not like you to say I'm sorry
you know it's too late for apologies
too soon to come back to where you wanna be
I close my eyes, I close my eyes
I fail to recognize the look that I knew I'd despise
a murderer in a thief's disguise
I'm about to live the life you thought we'd live together
I said you'd leave, you said you wouldn't
I guess I knew you better
I should have seen the writing on the walls
should have had the guts to call but you don't have the right to
It's not like you do this normally, not like you to say I'm sorry
you know it's too late for apologies
too soon to come back to where you wanna be
It's not like you do this normally, not like you to say I'm sorry
you know it's too late for apologies
too soon to come back to where you wanna be
I'm about to live the life you thought we'd live together
I said you'd leave, you said you wouldn't
I guess I knew you better
I should have seen the writing on the walls
should have had the guts to call but you don't have the right to
