Walk The Line Lyrics - Singles - Slave To The System

There's a cold shame 

That lingers in the air that fills this room 

And everything has changed 

We built it up but hit the wall so soon 

And maybe I could have done more 

To make a change 

But I was too far gone to find my way 

So many things to keep us here 

But not enough to teach us how to 

Breathe as we walk the line 

Or fall a thousand steps behind 

Breathe as we walk the line 

Through the silence 

A weeping from the walls still remains 

Where's my redemption 

And why does looking back bring so much pain 

We want it all, we want it now 

And nothing else can make us understand 

Sometimes it gets so hard 

It's such a shame that you're not here 

To take my hand and help me 

Breathe as we walk the line 

We fell a thousand steps behind 

Breathe as we walk the line 

The song within, once yours and mine 

Breathe as we walk the line 

We fell a thousand steps behind 

Now I leave here and close the door to this room 

One more time, I feel the warm sun 

It holds me close as I walk down the line
