My lips are shaking my nails are bit off Been a month since I've even heard myself talk Only advantage this life's got on me Picture empty cup in the middle of the sea And I fought back in my mind Never lets me be right I got memories I got **** So don't you go and show it Oh I walked the line when you held my hand at night Oh I walked the line when you held my hand at night On empty shells seem so easy to crack Got all these questions Don't know who I could even ask So I'll just lie and wait for the dream Where I'm not ugly and you're looking at me And I send you to bed Oh in a little while I'll see now If just once I could feel love Oh I'd say it like I mean it But I walked the line When you held me in at night Oh I walked the line When you held me in at night Oh I walked the line When you held me close at night I paid the price Never held you in real life
