Julian Lennon - Imaginary Lines слова песни
Heaven help the soul thats severedFrom the place where it belongsCaught up in the mindless struggleOf the weak against the strongHeadlights along the borderKeep the peace, their law and orderWhy cant we see its all a record of liesIts their kind of strengthIts their only defenseAn imaginary lineJust a kid and his younger brotherHeaded for the wireHad no rights in the telescopic sightsOf the vigilantes rifle fireAnd now hes buried on the borderWhere the rivers are blood not waterWhy cant we see its all a record of lies(why cant we see)Its their kind of truthIt can only be provedWith imaginary linesIn times like these concerningWho decides which bridge is burningDont fall for-map readingJust make sure that youre still breathingAfter the lines were drawn, the children wouldDream of the pearls and how beautiful they were.Year after year they would dive to the bottom ofThe lagoon hoping that the oysters would comeBack. they risked everything-their homes, familiesAnd meager possessions-to search for the pearls.To make sure they were heavy enough to reach theBottom, the children tied stones to their backs.Many of them died, streams of blood and brokenBodies rose to the surface of the lagoon...andThe lagoon cried.Why cant we see its all a record of lies(why cant we see)Its their kind of strengthTheir only defenseAn imaginary lineWhy cant we see its all a record of lies(why cant we see)Its their kind of truthIt can only be provedWith imaginary lines
