On The 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.
You play it well
The strong silent type, I guess
And vultures overhead
I feel you now
I know you'd do the same for me
I'm not that far away
And I'll be waiting
Try to scream but there's no sound
Cause you're alone
And I want you to come around
Take your time
It's all we have to make it through
I'm on the line for you
You're one of us
When the noose is tightening
You need to cut it off
I've lived defeat
It's not so bad when you have help
Just a call away
So I'll be waiting
Try to scream but there's no sound
Cause you're alone
And I want you to come around
Take your time
It's all we have to make it through
I'm on the line for you
On the line for you
Never second guess
On the line for you
I'm not that far away
So I'll be waiting
You try to scream but there's no sound
Cause you're alone
And I want you to come around
Take your time
It's all we have to make it through
I'm on the line for you
The line for you
