The Line

[Verse 1]
She was the first one to go
'I’ll be back for you,' the final words she spoke
And he was the second one to leave
Whispered, 'Don’t you worry'

[Chorus]
Because time is a warm dark circle
Day is returned to the looping of the line
Night is only a passing thing
We’ll be back again when it’s right

[Verse 2]
So I take it casually now
Got a new lease on the light
I quit my job, I don’t put fires out
It’s not the way to save a life

[Verse 3]
Oh, I stripped my body
On the hurt locker kind
I quit the ticking and the clipping of the wirеs
I no longer clock the time

[Chorus]
'Causе it’s all just a long dark circle
Day is returned to the looping of the line
Night is only a passing thing
We’ll be back again sometime

[Verse 4]
So I’m off, well I’m sailing out
Gotta find some better light
You track the wake and you'll find what I’m about
I’ll be back when it’s right

[Verse 5]
Well, I stripped my body
Of all that made it mine
I quit the slipping of the fingers of the dial
I no longer take up time

[Chorus]
It’s all just a long dark circle
Day is returned to the looping of the line
Dying is only a passing thing
We’ll be back again sometime
We’ll be back again when it’s right
