Crossing A Line
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.
They’ll tell you I don’t care anymore
And I hope you’ll know that’s a lie
Cause I’ve found what I have been waiting for
But to get there means crossing a line
I don’t know how to warn you for what I’m gonna say
Cause you’re holding so tight to what I’m taking away
I got demons inside me, so I’m faced with a choice
Either try to ignore them, or I give them a voice
And it’s keeping me up at night
Worried it’s not alright
Holding back things you don’t know
And it’s keeping me up at night
Worried it’s not alright
You’re not gonna like where this goes
And they’ll tell you I don’t care anymore
And I hope you’ll know that’s a lie
Cause I’ve found what I have been waiting for
But to get there means crossing a line
So I’m crossing a line
It’s not about status, we know it never was
Cause what good is the kingdom when you’re missing the love?
This is not a goodbye now, I’m not going away
No, I don’t have the answers, but I do have the faith
Ooh, and it’s keeping me up at night
Worried it’s not alright
Holding back things you don’t know
And it’s keeping me up at night
Worried it’s not alright
You’re not gonna like where this goes, no
And they’ll tell you I don’t care anymore
And I hope you’ll know that’s a lie
Cause I’ve found what I have been waiting for
But to get there means crossing a line
So I’m crossing a line
And they’ll tell you I don’t care anymore
And I hope you’ll know that’s a lie
(Hope you know that's a lie)
Cause I’ve found what I have been waiting for
(Found what I have been waiting for)
But to get there means crossing a line
So I’m crossing a line
So I’m crossing a line
So I’m crossing a line
