Lyrics
Outside The Lines
Verse 1: Saw you through the dark Gnawing on my skeleton Feeding off my eyes You're lovin’ this, just lovin’ it Is there a chance, A chance to escape all this
Pre-Chorus: Testing the borders, coloring outside the lines
Chorus: Throw my heart into the shore Try to fight to save what's left You're acquiring the rest Setting fire to my chest Throw my heart into the waves Another dream you took away I'm falling further every day
Verse 2: Got me cornered now Hiding what I need the most Am I sinking now The walls around me start to close You tied this Rope so tight Then dropped me From so high You tied this Rope so tight
Pre-Chorus: Testing the borders, coloring outside the lines
Chorus: Throw my heart into the shore Try to fight to save what's left You're acquiring the rest Setting fire to my chest Throw my heart into the waves Another dream you took away I'm falling further every day
I'm falling further every day
Bridge: If you're playing with matches You'll get burned by the flames If you're holding your breath You won't make it past today You keep playing with matches But I'm not gonna break I don't care if you're screaming 'Cause I'm not listening
Chorus: Throw my heart into the shore Try to fight to save what's left You're acquiring the rest Setting fire to my chest Throw my heart into the waves Another dream you took away I'm falling further every day
