Line of Dots by The Invisible Teal Lyrics
If I took a breath to let you see
There isn’t a whole lot wrong with me
Would I disappear like sinking sand?
Would you vanish from my master plan?
With the longest life comes the faintest sparks
No exclamation points or question marks –
Just one line of dots and some average bands
A thousand miles from your master plan
Well, children starve
And sell their bodies in darkened cars (join hands in dark cars) ...
But really, it’s not that hard
To adopt every one of their scars
Rearrange that dirge into a decree:
“There will be a whole lot wrong with me!”
'Cause a broken man is still a man
And a laureate soldier in the master plan
(Those were some miserable but necessary years.)
Well, children starve
And sell their bodies for jars of nard
But even the faintest sparks
Will outshine every one of their scars
This line of dots is proudly ours
There isn’t a whole lot wrong with me
Would I disappear like sinking sand?
Would you vanish from my master plan?
With the longest life comes the faintest sparks
No exclamation points or question marks –
Just one line of dots and some average bands
A thousand miles from your master plan
Well, children starve
And sell their bodies in darkened cars (join hands in dark cars) ...
But really, it’s not that hard
To adopt every one of their scars
Rearrange that dirge into a decree:
“There will be a whole lot wrong with me!”
'Cause a broken man is still a man
And a laureate soldier in the master plan
(Those were some miserable but necessary years.)
Well, children starve
And sell their bodies for jars of nard
But even the faintest sparks
Will outshine every one of their scars
This line of dots is proudly ours
