The Line / Open Invitation Songtext
I am the line
I hold you near
There is no burden left to bear
I can see clear
You′re in suspension
You know no love
There is no story left to tell
You have no wisdom to pass on
I am the soul of absolution
No man can hide his own illusion
My hands are crippled from the pain
You are the splinter in my vein
You put your head between your hands
And understand nothing it adds
I feel the answers keep you scared
I've put the harm inside myself
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
I am the line
I hold you near
There is no burden left to bear
I can see clear
I am perfected
I know no void
I have no conscience to keep clear
I understand there′s nothing more
You try to kid yourself with questions
Pleading inside for some correction
I found you tied unto the cross
Your judgment owns your every thought
You know my words all mean the same
You've buried here to isolate
Into this prison in your mind
Well, you were born without a spine
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
When did you stop caring?
When did you stop caring?
When did you stop caring?
When did you stop caring?
Yeah, okay. Are you recording?
Okay, so right. Okay, it starts like this
On and on
I've been waiting on the open invitation
Your silence show me no relation
In the rising cold don′t you feel alone?
I′ll be standing with your sorrow
All you left me's gone away tomorrow
And we may never be here again
And we may never be here again
Pull me up on either side
Don′t leave me standing alone in the light
Pull me up on either side
Don't leave me standing alone in the light
On and on
I′ve been waiting on the open invitation
Your silence show me no relation
In the rising cold don't you feel alone?
I′ll be standing with your sorrow
All you left me's gone away tomorrow
And we may never be here again
And we may never be here again
I hold you near
There is no burden left to bear
I can see clear
You′re in suspension
You know no love
There is no story left to tell
You have no wisdom to pass on
I am the soul of absolution
No man can hide his own illusion
My hands are crippled from the pain
You are the splinter in my vein
You put your head between your hands
And understand nothing it adds
I feel the answers keep you scared
I've put the harm inside myself
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm

I′ll be standing with your sorrow
All you left me's gone away tomorrow
And we may never be here again
And we may never be here again
