Borderline

Sadness always finds an in

Sneaks its way past, infecting everything

And every chapter has an end

But this is one momentous sequel, don't you think?

And the blackbirds, they fly

Like a frown on the skyline

Right now, I feel I'm running from the light

Engulfed in darkness

Shielded from my eyes

One foot in, one out

I'm stuck on the borderline

Which way will I?

Guess I should take this on the chin

But I don't even know how all of this began

We are made to mould and bend

How can I wish for nothing when it's still a sin?

Right now, I feel I'm running from the light

Engulfed in darkness

Shielded from my eyes

One foot in, one out

I'm stuck on the borderline

Which way will I?

Tears never arrive

These ducts are dry

We are so blind

Waiting on the borderline

Waiting on the borderline

So, I will pour another drink

And try to drown the pain with salt along the rim

And I'll shut off the things I think

'Cause nothing good will ever come from worrying

Right now, I feel I'm running from the light

Engulfed in darkness

Shielded from my eyes

One foot in, one out

I'm stuck on the borderline

Which way will I?

Tears never arrive

These ducts are dry

We are so blind
