Lyrics Outside the Lines - Shane Alexander

Outside the Lines

Sun’s coming up on a suburban day —
you can see the trash on the sidewalk waits to be carried away.
The neighbors don’t know me, don’t know what we’re doin' inside
They just move down the sidewalk and follow the signs
And it’s a perfect day to hide away from the world outside,
To stay in bed, that’s what I said — let’s waste the hours you and I
Outside a war is ragin'- baby, there’s people dyin
Maybe we’re goin' nowhere, but we gotta keep tryin
What the neighbors don’t know is that we’re doin' fine
We just move to our own beat, we keep our own time
And it’s a perfect day to hide away from the world outside,
To stay in bed, that’s what I said — let’s waste the hours you and I
When tomorrow comes and today is done, you’re gonna have to leave my side
so stay in bed and ease your head let’s waste the hours you and I
maybe they won’t even miss us at all, maybe the writing’s on the wall
I want to know what freedom feels like, I want to live outside the lines
When the sun goes down, down on this suburban day
And all the trash on the sidewalk has all been carried away
And the neighbors come home, come back from over those hills
You know that we’ll be right here and I’ll be lovin' you still
And it’s a perfect day to hide away from the world outside,
To stay in bed, that’s what I said — let’s waste the hours you and I
When tomorrow comes and today is done you’re gonna have to leave my side
so stay in bed and ease your head let’s waste the hours you and I
