Life on the Line - The Raincoats

A feeling of being followed

A feeling of being watched

Isn’t easy to define

So I won’t trouble you

She put her life on the line

She kept trying

Trying to find

A place to hide

Somewhere inside

Somewhere where the air was hot

And her blood could rush

But she could not

Her logic was too tangled

I couldn’t untangle it

How can silence or expression

Stop or start here for anyone

She kept trying

Trying to find

A place to hide

Somewhere inside

Somewhere where the air was hot

And her blood could rush

But she could not

She’s got her back to the wall

Some are gone but we’re still here

This train is arriving

Steel wheels

She wants to feel

She kept trying

Trying to find

A place to hide

Somewhere inside

Somewhere where the air was hot

And her blood could rush

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not

But she could not
