(Anastasio/Fishman/Gordon/McConnell/Marshall)

I'm up
and I can take what you give
And I'm here
But I don't want you to live with me
'Cause all I want is a taste for free
I'm down and I will
drag you along and around
Until you burst into song and unwind
And leave your new life behind for a while
'Cause I can see through the lines

Down on myself again
Step into space
Wondering how I can
Alter my place
In this hall of creation
that someone else made
who's probably wondering
why I have stayed

and never progressed (cause i can't see)
into things I could be (through the lines)
if I found the right partner (i can't see)
or if I could see (through the lines)
beyond my four walls (I can't see)
into fog that surrounds (through the lines)
my need for redemption (I can't see)
pins me to the ground

Step into space
Alter my place
that someone else made
Why I have stayed
into things I can be
or if I could see
into fog that surrounds
and pins me to the ground

I can't see through the lines
I can't see through the lines
I can't see through the lines
I can't see through the lines
