Draw the Line Songtext
von Al Agami

Draw the line, connect the dots
Vow to give it all you got
It′s all the same, you will remain
Standing tall, until you fall
And all in all, you will survive
You stay alive, from nine to five
Soon enough, you'll truly see
Exactly what, you′re meant to be


Passing through on this journey of life, I'm staying headstrong
I'm taking it as it comes, one step at a time, still dead wrong
Making my way, through this maze of madness
The hazy horizons marking the limits to crazy sadness
Ambition is set aside as I ride the nightmare
Insanity saved my soul, but there′s no light there
What I will see, will be due to my insight
The vision of this original sinner who be burning bright
From the outside looking in to the essence of love
I feel the presence of greatness but not from above
The mind is free, from all clouds of doubt
Pros and cons cancelling each other out
But with nothing left to chance, the beat that I follow is
Monotony, so full of itself, and so hollow it′s
The spitting image, of the mortal I used to be
A reflection of my past life fantasy

The natural, order of things is humble beginnings
So a self-made man such as I must count the winnings
The story, as yet, is still too far from told
You still got a long way to go before coming in from the cold
The guidelines are blurred, so many errors to make
You find out you only as real as the life you fake
Sticking to your guns, staying true to the lie
You're so shell-shocked, but yours is not the reason why
You′re hiding, behind, whatever you can find
To stop the blinding light from illuminating the mind
Perspective becomes a case of self-deception
Or a question of faith like immaculate conception
But the either/or is neither here nor there
Cause the signs of the time are everywhere
How to deal with the feeling is something you don't know
What you need from the world is room to grow, so


If you truly understand, let me ask you this
You say the universe expands, yo, but is it all bliss?
How do you uphold a higher standard of living
As you look to the heavens when planet Earth is unforgiving
I believe mother nature′s gonna bury us all
Cause you can't seek protection behind the firewall
It′s the gateway to life, it's death, whatever your creed
The same rules apply, so you need to take heed
There's no guarantee of ever coming to a conclusion
Except there′s nothing as effective as a collective illusion
So as I continue down this forever winding road
No absolute zero, no overload
The sum of all the parts is still greater than the whole
The difference between the two is determined by soul
The common denominator′s just a simple separation
What is loneliness if not quiet desperation?
