The Borderline

I see a kid on the street Ragged shoes on her feet From all her fights and victories She doesn't care 'cause she's happy to Just be playing like any kid would do I see a man walk aimlessly His drifting mind to a pace his feet Will take one step at a time How did it come to this that we are blind To not see souls on the borderline There's always powers that'll keep us down If we could smell the flowers' scent of a different land We'd find we're not the only ones with this heavy weight Bearing down from sky to ground I see myself in their eyes And wish for them much more of life Mine isn't great, I can't deny But I'll try to break the borderline Walking with you one step at a time There's always powers that'll keep us down If we could smell the flowers' scent of a different land We'd find we're not the only ones with this heavy weight Bearing down from sky to ground Life is love and love is here From daily toils that grow your fear I have a heart and open mind I want to take you from the borderline Walking with you one step at a time
