My lips are shakin' my nails are bit off
Been a month since I've heard myself talk
All the advantage this life's got on me
Picture a cup in the middle of the sea

And I fight back in my mind
Never lets me be right
I got memories I got shit
So don't you go show
Oh I walked the line when you held me in that night
I walked the line when you held my hand that night

An empty shells seem so easy to crack
Got all these questions don't know who I could even ask
So I'll just lie alone and wait for the dream
Where I'm not ugly and your lookin' at me

And I stayed in bed
Oh in a little while I'll see you
If just once I could feel love
Oh I'd say it like I mean it
But I walked the line when you held me in that night
Oh I walked the line when you held my hand that night
Oh I walked the line when you held me close that night
I paid the price never held you in real life
My lips are shakin'
