Hold The Line

Lines run from me to you
A trick or a tie that we're fastened to
Look at those lines, now starting to fray
Stitch them together so we don't fall away
Over our heads and deep underground
We cut up our paths that we once laid down
When we were only a fleeting glance
Stopped at a cross and caught in a trance

Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We are, we are, we are, we are falling fast
Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast
Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We are, we are, we are, we are falling fast
Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast

When you drink your fill of wine
And lose your way and sense of time
If you don't recognize any place
Hold on to the ropes and begin to retrace
Is there attachment to the walls of the places we know
And follow the meanings from long ago
It's from your want to hold the doors
And I'm hoping its mine you'll be standing before

Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We are, we are, we are, we are falling fast
Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast
Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We are, we are, we are, we are falling fast
Hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line
We know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast

Hold on to the line and begin to retrace every step, every step
I've lost my sense of place, need a second grace and these feelings, I can't erase
Hold on to the line and begin to recollect every stage, every stage
I've filled myself with wine, lost my sense of time and these feelings are intertwined
