Red Lines Lyrics

Calling into question

Pushing into frame

Pulling down the curtains

Hide behind a name

We turn off the power

And then turn on the lights

And look into dark corners

While wondering why

We're drawn to the shadows

And drawn to the stage

Shunning imperfection

Built yourself a cage

Hiding in the daylight

See you in the moonlight

Smoothing out your red lines

Pulling out your dead vines

Handprint on the mirror

Saline dries to dust

Crumbled on the surface

Fabric bathed in rust

Sheltered from decision

Longing you to stay

Narrowing of vision

Nothing left to say

But lines to learn and mimic

Stoic eyes evade

Tempering your limits

To lock yourself away

Distance and division

Hide the ugly truth

Bury the decisions

That stripped away our youth

So we seek attention

Hiding our gray roots

Smoothing out our red lines

Semblance renewed
