Standing In The Line

For all the ladies standing in the line

For all the people waiting for a sign

You cry, you cry.

For all the beggars reaching out a hand

For all the soldiers crawling cross the sand

You cry, you cry.

For all the children staring into space

As all the politicians fall from grace

You cry, you cry.

For all the prisoners held without a crime

And all the angels dead before their time

You cry, you cry.

And ohhow i need to believe

But the devil deals with face cards up his sleeve

And ohif your tears were a sign,

I would put my life in your hands and stand in the line.

For all the creatures running out of luck

And all the forests burning for a buck

You cry, you cry.

For all the ones that die without a cause

And all the nations bombing to defend gods laws

You cry, you cry.

And ohhow i pray that youre real

But the devil pulls a string we all can feel

And ohif your love was for free,

I would stand alone at your door to hear you crying for me.

For all the people starving in the night

For all the sailors looking for a fight

You cry, you cry.

For the beggars reaching out a hand

And all the soldiers crawling cross the sand

You cry, you cry.

For all the ladies standing in the line

And all the people waiting for a sign

You cry, you cry.
