They don't want you to see
The lies behind their fake hospitality
Innocence was a commodity
The promises sold told us we would become free

That's why I walk the line
I walk the line
The dividing line
Of defining times
I walk the line
I walk the line
Our deafening cries
They defy their lies
So one more time, I'll walk the line

What a joke that we were sold
A silver spoon
They shoved it down our throats
When we were fed, the handle broke
Now a dose of false hope festers through our homes

That's why I walk the line
I walk the line
The dividing line
Of defining times
I walk the line
I walk the line
Our deafening cries
They defy their lies
So one more time, I'll walk the line

If you bite the hand that feeds you well
You'll have to find new ways to feed yourself
Let the animal thrive out of its shell
And walk between the lines of the life you're dealt

If you bite the hand that reaches out
You'll have to find new ways of breaking down
Let the animal thrive out of its cage
And navigate the lines that become depraved
If you bite the hand that feeds you well

You'll have to find new ways to feed yourself
Let the animal thrive out of its home
And build a house of cards that'll free your soul

That's why I walk the line
The dividing line
Of defining times
I walk the line
I walk the line
Our deafening cries
They defy their lies
