Behind The Lines |
I held the book so tightly in my hands, saw your picture, heard you call my name |
There was something strange, I could not look away |
I wanted to be there, I wanted to go You gave me no warning |
You gave no reason |
But I was with you |
Right by your side |
Give me the strength, and I will help you |
They can try their hardest, they don’t frighten me It is written in the book |
It is hotter than I’ve known before, but I feel so cold, and I don’t know why |
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm |
Then I really believe, you could make it right |
The time has come now |
We must show our feelings |
But I’m looking right through you |
And your heart is empty |
Whatever happened to you it’s too late to change now |
There’s nowhere you can run to, no place to hide |
Oh you let me down! |
…but wait a minute, I don’t understand |
It’s getting stronger, grab my hand |
Don’t wanna leave you, don’t wanna go But I’m losing all control |
Can’t you see me slipping away? |
