Keane - The Staring Line Lyrics

This town was a lovers stage but now you cant recognize
The street lights that are daggers to your eyes
You cant find your barings, your slipping into the ground
The scene has no color and no sound.

You still beleive in me after the things I've done
You fear for what we have become
The ground is uneven, stummble from day to day
Unsure, I know your feet are like lead
But you gotta got underway

Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before you time
It's to easy to get left behind
I know you've been kicked around,
But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me


Each heart is a paper cut blown around by the breeze
Love wont rest till it brings you to your knees
Some find it easy, some will never even know
--unsure- begun their journey then you stumble and find
That there's such a long way to go

Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before you time
It's to easy to get left behind
I know you've been kicked around,
You wanna be lost and not be found
Lets take the back way into town
Drink till the bad times ------- me

Girl I still I believe in you, you're too good to fall so low
We're gonna find a better life I know
Things will be clearer, as soon as we make a start
We'll be that much nearer, we're to old to just stand here
Waiting to break apart

Drag your heart up to the starting line
Forget the ghosts that make you old before you time
It's to easy to get left behind
I know you've been kicked around,
But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me

On me
On me
