Intro:
A side of temperance
an appetite for excess
I'm burning down
like your cigarette
Verse 1:
Shane Told : Growl
You had me at goodbye
I loved to see
you slip away
Staring at a car crash
Josh Bradford Sings backup:
You had me cornered
I lived to watch you
I enjoyed captivity
Shane Told: Sing
We kill at weddings
and live for funerals
We're taking steps on
the water just to show
Shane Told: Growl
We do whatever we want to
Chorus 1: Growl
How Did I forget
who I was
Did I forget just
where I came from
Did I just lose who I am
This is the line I
stand A feast of
apathy a shot of angst
Verse 2:
Shane Told: Growl
I carried you away
I dropped you in the gutter
Just to watch you scream
Josh Bradford: Sings Backup Growls
I brought you to safety
Taking all your blame
Hid you and protected
Shane Told: Sing
We save with violence
and lie with eloquence
We're turning wine into
water with abhorrence
Shane Told: Growl
We'll save whoever
we want to
Chorus 2: Growl
How Did I forget
who I was
Did I forget just
where I came from
Did I just lose who I am
D C#m F#m(hold)
This is the line I stand
Breakdown: Melody became softer
Bridge:
I'm not so confident
I'm gonna be the one
Who takes the next step
I'm a cyclone
passion overblown
Tied to the tides that
pull me in the undertow
Where the wind blows
Is where my body's
Bm D (hold)
thrown And I can't fight it
Maybe we should
walk away from this
Take our proverbial
walk into the sunset
Maybe we are destined
to be different
We were designed for
more resilience than this
But we don't know how
and we live in the now
If we were smarter maybe
we would try to fake it
Maybe we should
walk away from this
And stop being ourselves
Just stop being yourself
If you want to be happy
Chorus 3: Growl
How Did I forget
who I was
Did I forget just
where I came from
Did I just lose who I am
This is the fine line I stand
This is the fine line I stand
D C#m(hold)
This is the fine line I
