Sims - The Line lyrics
[Sims - The Line lyrics]
You don't gotta walk that line
You don't gotta walk that line
Don't go that road alone
The first Vic' took to make
His leg feel right
Within a few nights the dose went up to two
Within a month it was all that he could chew
Then the the vice started grippin' tryin'
To shake that feeling loose
He said: prescriptions
That ain’t no addiction
This is quick fixin’ daily afflictions
Mind your business
You ain’t never walk in my shoes
Plus who are you to judge?
You ain’t never seen these hues
Started flirtin’ with Percs’ but
That ain’t work enough
Copped some OxyContin
Now the high’s chirpin’ up
Five mils, ten mils, twenty mils
Stop the chills refills stop the feelin’
Dave stopped payin’ bills
A hole in his stomach, hole in the budget
And a hole in the bucket
That the pills ain’t pluggin’
And I ain’t budgin’ on this one
Ain’t no runnin’ from this, son
One night we’re drinkin’ whiskey
I said: sit down and listen
I said: Dave you’re my friend and I love you
But, I see a darkness
A cloud that hangs above you
The night can get so heartless
A brighter day’s ahead
But, you gotta spark it, shake that sun loose
And I said
You don't have to walk that line
You don't have to walk that line
Don't go that road alone
You don't have to walk that line
You don't have to walk that line
Don't go that road alone
Cassie’s not eatin’ parents never minded
But that’s not the reason she
Takes her problems quiet
If you ask her she’ll deny it
But that ain’t no diet
Livin’ on the silent alone
Skin tight to the bone
Flippin’ through the pages of
Her favorite magazine
And it encircles her with writhing agony
She don’t look like those women
And it eats her away
And the children in the hallway
Ain’t got nuttin’ to say
They just walk on by she just wants to hide
And disappear completely
So no food resolutely and she’ll
Do it too discretely
But that ain’t hers uniquely
You can see it on the tv
Sellin’ sex to preteens it ain’t easy
Teachers takin’ notice
Brought her to the clinic
All these sons and daughters
Body image martyrs
But it ain’t worth the sickness
The darkness brought upon us
I hope you listen, we need you with us
Honest
You don't have to walk that line
You don't have to walk that line
Don't go that road alone
You don't have to walk that line
You don't have to walk that line
Don't go that road alone
You don't gotta walk that line
Don't go that road alone
The first Vic' took to make

Within a month it was all that he could chew
