Electric President - Dotted Lines lyrics

rate me

My heart won't break, it's locked in a safe<br />

There is no key, ok, ok<br />

The windowpanes can't stop the rain<br />

The wind outside, it sounds like trains<br />

We're so well read<br />

We've filled our heads with all that knowledge left for dead<br />

But we're still cracked, we can't relax<br />

'Cause all we've learned is nothing lasts<br />

<br />

It's nil out there with all their stares<br />

But we don't care, don't care, don't care<br />

We toed the line but it broke this time<br />

And now we've sunk to picking fights<br />

It's sad but true that it's up to you to find the faults in what we do<br />

I know my place<br />

It's the same old case<br />

It's what we've labeled saving face<br />

<br />

There's always time to sign your name<br />

There's always a dotted line to blame<br />

There's always laugh tracks in my brain whenever I try to explain this<br />

Seems everyone's an open book and they found mine and you all looked<br />

The pages were blank, except the last one shows my middle finger<br />

<br />

But I can't complain<br />

I got this way by laughing at the sadder things<br />

It's like we're cursed<br />

We're always first to watch as our hopes hit the dirt<br />

But we don't mind<br />

We always find another guinea pig to fly<br />

I'd like to think that I can't sink 'cause I hit bottom just last week
