Small Dark Lines

(album: Legends Of The Shires - 2017)

There's a glint on the wind and the future's waiting
If my dark little words don't blow the whole thing
And I know that the world can be mine to conquer
If my dark little thoughts don't start to wander
I feel them slipping away

I know that your loving eyes are on to me
And living life is such a high-risk strategy

There are small dark lines on my heart tonight
From all those times that I crossed the line
Hallmark scars that were left behind
Memories never fade
I know I should never be forgiven
Given all the little lies I'm living
So I suffer those lines as a warning sign
That never goes away

So the lines are defined and the future's on plan
If my dark little mind stays with the programme
I can carry every pound of the pressure on me
If my dark little fears don't overcome me
I feel them slipping away

I know that your loving eyes are on to me
And living life is such a high-risk strategy

There are small dark lines on my heart tonight
From all those times that I crossed the line
Hallmark scars that were left behind
Memories never fade
I know I should never be forgiven
Given all the little lies I'm living
So I suffer those lines as a warning sign
That never goes away

It takes time erasing all the lies
It takes time erasing all the lines

I know I should never be forgiven
Given all the little lies I'm living
So I suffer those lines as a warning sign
That never goes away
Never goes away
Never goes away
