A Line in the Sand |
Tell me what would you do If I told you the truth |
And I took you by the hand |
To see the dust swirl in pools |
And a dark desert cool |
In an empty wasted land |
Tell me what would you do If this happened to you |
Would it help you now to understand |
There’s a line in the sand |
A line in the sand |
It’ll keep you from the promised land |
It’s just a line in the sand |
And what would you say |
If I told you today |
That your mother won’t hold your hand any more |
She’s broken and tired |
She’s inflamed with desire |
To turn her head and, and walk away |
From the line in the sand |
The line in the sand |
It’ll keep you from the promised land |
It’s just a line in the sand |
A line in the sand |
It’s going to keep you from the promised land |
The refineries burn |
And your mother, she turns |
To watch you stumble into the night |
She’s run out of tears |
Have you run out of fear? |
Is your candle still burning bright? |
You’ve crossed that line in the sand |
The line in the sand |
It’s going to keep you from the promised land |
It’s just a line in the sand |
A line in the sand |
It’s going to keep you from the promised land |
