Slave To The System - Walk The Line Lyrics

There's a cold shame
That lingers in the air that fills this room
And everything has changed
We built it up but hit the wall so soon

And maybe I could have done more
To make a change
But I was too far gone to find my way
So many things to keep us here
But not enough to teach us how to

(Chorus)
Breathe as we walk the line
Or fall a thousand steps behind
Breathe as we walk the line

Through the silence
A weeping from the walls still remains
Where's my redemption
And why does looking back bring so much pain

We want it all, we want it now
And nothing else can make us understand
Sometimes it gets so hard
It's such a shame that you're not here
To take my hand and help me

(Chorus)
Breathe as we walk the line
We fell a thousand steps behind
Breathe as we walk the line
The song within, once yours and mine
Breathe as we walk the line
We fell a thousand steps behind

Now I leave here and close the door to this room one more time
I feel the warm sun
It holds me close as I walk down the line
