I See the Line

from The Mask by Bill White

/

lyrics

First he learned to use the club
To settle a dispute
Then he ate his brothers flesh
In fields of rotting fruit

I see the line

Civilizations arose
From fields of blood and sweat
They still say Lincoln freed the slaves
but it hasnt happened yet

I see the line

Is this the whole trip
Or just a stop in a station of space?
to find love, to forget love
A place for hearts to break

I see the line

The sun burns to a cinder
The moon reflects no light
A lost and lonely planet
Spins through the empty night

I see the line

A phantom ship still sails the sea
Although nobody steers it
The captain used to sing a song
Theres no one left to hear it

I see the line

If we are the only ones
With eyes to see, with ears to hear
Who will know the universe
When we disappear?

I see the line
