outside the lines - shane alexander |
|
sun's coming up |
|
on a suburban day |
|
you can see the trash on the sidewalk |
|
waits to be carried away |
|
the neighbors don't know me |
|
don't know what we're doing inside |
|
they just move down the sidewalk |
|
and follow the signs |
|
and it's a perfect day to hide away |
|
from the world outside |
|
to stay in bed |
|
that's what i said |
|
let's waste the hours you and i |
|
outside a war is raging |
|
baby, there's people dying |
|
maybe we're going nowhere |
|
but we gotta keep trying |
|
what the neighbors |
|
don't know is that we're doing fine |
|
we just move to our own beat |
|
we keep our own time |
|
and it's a perfect day to hide away |
|
from the world outside |
|
to stay in bed |
|
that's what i said |
|
let's waste the hours you and i |
|
when tomorrow comes and today is done |
|
you're gonna have to leave my side |
|
so stay in bed and ease your head |
|
let's waste the hours you and i |
|
maybe they won't even miss us at all |
|
maybe the writing's on the wall |
|
i want to know what freedom feels like |
|
i want to live outside the lines |
|
when the sun goes down |
|
down on this suburban day |
|
and all the trash on the sidewalk |
|
has all been carried away |
|
and the neighbors come home |
|
come back from over those hills |
|
you know that we'll be right here |
|
and i'll be loving you still |
|
and it's a perfect day to hide |
|
away from the world outside |
|
to stay in bed |
|
that's what i said |
|
let's waste the hours you and i |
|
when tomorrow comes |
|
and today is done you're gonna |
|
have to leave my side |
|
so stay in bed |
|
and ease your head |
|
let's waste the hours you and i |
