My lips are shakin', my nails are bit off
Been a month since I've heard myself talk
All the advance this life's got on me
Picture a cup in the middle of the sea
And I fight back in my mind...
Never let's me be right, oh...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it don't show...
I walked the line
When you held me in that night
I walked the line
When you held my hand that night...
An empty shell seems so easy to crack
Got all these questions, don't know who I could even ask
So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me
And I'll stay in a bed
Oh could i've seen him
If just once, I could feel loved
Oh, stare back at me, yeah...
But I walked the line
When you held me in that night
Oh, I walked the line
When you held my hand that night
Oh, I walked the line
When you held me close at night
I paid the price, never held you in real life
we're all sentient snowflakes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm a number that doesn't count
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the nothing ventured - the nothing feigned
My lips are shakin', my nails are bit off
Been a month since I've heard myself talk
All the advance this life's got on me
Picture a cup in the middle of the sea
And I fight back in my mind...
Never let's me be right, oh...
I got memories, I got shit
So much it don't show...
I walked the line
When you held me in that night
I walked the line
When you held my hand that night...
An empty shell seems so easy to crack
Got all these questions, don't know who I could even ask
So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me
And I'll stay in a bed
Oh could i've seen him
If just once, I could feel loved
Oh, stare back at me, yeah...
But I walked the line
When you held me in that night
Oh, I walked the line
When you held my hand that night
Oh, I walked the line
When you held me close at night
I paid the price, never held you in real life
Except for the first verse, he could be singing about his biological dad...not saying he is, just saying he could be.
