Crossing the Line

Someone fired the starting gun
But no one came to run the race
The spectators watched and stayed in their seats
No one fixed the mistakes

We’re standing in the rain
Of shadows and lies
The ground is shifting in the streets
We are crossing the line

The goalposts moved, the score erased
Truth is pounding at the door
What once was up is upside down
I don’t recognize us anymore

We’re standing in the rain
Of shadows and lies
The ground is shifting in the streets
We are crossing the line

Now all I see are enemies
Vultures circling overhead
Whispering the end of us is near

We’re standing in the rain
Of shadows and lies
The ground is shifting in the streets
We are crossing the line

It used to be good, the way things were
There was a sweet smell in the air
We dreamed of brighter coming days
We held tomorrow with such care

Now we’re standing in the rain
Of shadows and lies
Wake me from this broken dream
We have crossed the line
Oh, we have crossed the line
