hold the line

lines run from me to you, a trick or a tie that we're fastened to, look at those lines, now starting to fray, stitch them together so we don't fall away, over our heads and deep underground, we cut up our paths that we once laid down, when we were only a fleeting glance, stopped at a cross and caught in a trance, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we are, we are, we are, we are falling fast, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we are, we are, we are, we are falling fast, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast, when you drink your fill of wine, and lose your way and sense of time, if you don't recognize any place, hold on to the ropes and begin to retrace, is there attachment to the walls of the places we know, and follow the meanings from long ago, it's from your want to hold the doors, and i'm hoping its mine you'll be standing before, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we are, we are, we are, we are falling fast, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we are, we are, we are, we are falling fast, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, hold the line, we know, we know, we know that the tie's not cast, hold on to the line and begin to retrace every step, every step, i've lost my sense of place, need a second grace and these feelings, i can't erase, hold on to the line and begin to recollect every stage, every stage, i've filled myself with wine, lost my sense of time and these feelings are intertwined
