lyrics

Straight Line

What do you think
What do you know
How can you know what you'll reap
Don't even know what you've sown
How can you think you've got, any answers when,
The questions haven't been posed
What makes your world so absolute
Where mine is headed, who knows

We got lots of questions that need answers
Struggle with my conscience, where's that straight line
Twist and spin, I'm dizzy, pray I'm not blind
Got to keep my strength up, fight for what's mine

What do you think
Who do you know
You feel your life incomplete
You ask me, what do I know
How can you think I've got, any answers when,
The questions haven't been shown
Realization, restitution. I've got my empty only to hold

We got lots of questions that need answers
Struggle with my conscience, where's that straight line
Twist and spin, I'm dizzy, pray I'm not blind
Got to keep my strength up, fight for what's mine

We got lots of questions that need answers
Struggle with my conscience, where's that straight line
Twist and spin, I'm dizzy, pray I'm not blind
Got to keep my strength up, fight for what's mine
