Lyrics
Verse 1
I read the news, it cuts like steel,
A broken clock spins what’s real.
They sell the answers, they feed the fear,
But truth’s a ghost that won’t appear.
Pre-Chorus
And every lie, like a thread unspooled,
Leaves the world a little more fooled.
Chorus
We draw lines in the sand, then watch them fade,
Build our walls where the cracks are made.
The blues remind what we can’t withstand,
In the weight of the lines we draw in the sand.
Verse 2
They light the fires, we breathe the smoke,
Dreams get tangled in the words they spoke.
The rivers rise, the streets run dry,
And still, we barter the price of the sky.
Pre-Chorus
The truth gets lost in a twisted tune,
A heavy sigh beneath the moon.
Chorus
We draw lines in the sand, then watch them fade,
Build our walls where the cracks are made.
The blues remind what we can’t withstand,
In the weight of the lines we draw in the sand.
Bridge
When did we trade our hopes for fear,
And drown the future we held dear?
The songs we sing, the games we play,
Can’t wash the guilt we hide away.
Pre-Chorus
The truth gets lost in a twisted tune,
A heavy sigh beneath the moon.
Chorus
We draw lines in the sand, then watch them fade,
Build our walls where the cracks are made.
The blues remind what we can’t withstand,
In the weight of the lines we draw in the sand.
Outro
The tide will come, the waves will claim,
Every border, every name.
But until the sea reclaims this land,
We’ll keep drawing lines in the sand.
END
