Lyrics

The Line

There’s a line being drawn across the world today
Full of fear and suspicion, insecurity and hate
(It) forces us to defend, apologise and fight back
Tests our resolve, all the while it attacks.

There’s a line being drawn round the world today
that divides us and rules us, in the old fashioned way

There’s a line being drawn round the world today
Across every child that’s born, every creed and race
Everywhere you go, everyone you meet
Every heart, every mind, every thought and belief

There’s a line being drawn round the world today
So, which side of that line do YOU stand, by the way?

There’s a line being drawn across my very soul
That forces me to question who I can call my own
It pushes me to answer, where I belong
Puts me in the dock, judges me right or wrong
There’s a line being drawn across my very soul

I’m gonna walk that line… walk that line… walk that line
Till the day I’m gone
