Borderline by Tim Bowness Lyrics
You looked normal with your mouth shut
Almost human in your sleep
But the waking hours destroyed you
(Sometimes your feelings ran too deep)
Your thoughts grow loud (you’re crossing the border)
You try to hold them in (you’re crossing the line)
You in love is where the pain begins
(You’re crossing the borderline)
Run through the rooms
Bang the walls, kick the doors
Light up the gloom
Keep your hand off the pause
Friends keeping tabs -
You just say that you’re fine
They’re watching you slip
Across the fragile borderline
Stepping out (you’re crossing the border)
In the evening din (you’re crossing the line)
You in love is where the pain begins
(You’re crossing the borderline)
Almost human in your sleep
But the waking hours destroyed you
(Sometimes your feelings ran too deep)
Your thoughts grow loud (you’re crossing the border)
You try to hold them in (you’re crossing the line)
You in love is where the pain begins
(You’re crossing the borderline)
Run through the rooms
Bang the walls, kick the doors
Light up the gloom
Keep your hand off the pause
Friends keeping tabs -
You just say that you’re fine
They’re watching you slip
Across the fragile borderline
Stepping out (you’re crossing the border)
In the evening din (you’re crossing the line)
You in love is where the pain begins
(You’re crossing the borderline)
