Lyric The Line

Album: Biography - The Greatest Hits (2003)


I look at the sky to where my future s lying
And I almost start to cry
Blinded by the sun I m trying to hold onto
The very last of precious time

Then I start to thinking what a mess we re making
And it won t get better by & by
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

Chorus:
We cannot overstep
We cannot overstep the
We cannot overstep the line

So many baby s arms with nothing to hold onto
But just a precious flake of life
You think you care about them
They think you care about them
But thinking s only wasting time

If we really want to say the things we want to
It takes a bigger man to try
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

(Chorus)

Well politicians sit and pretend they give a shit while
Little men go out to die
The only arms they re hugging are the ones they re running
Later to be justified

I say I don t mind
You say you don t mind
But what about the babies and what about the sunshine
Well we can paint it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

(Chorus)

Say I don t mind
You say you don t mind
But what about the babies and what about the sunshine
Well we can point it up and make it pretty but
We cannot overstep the line

(Chorus)
