This news won¡¯t break my heart
|
It¡¯s already been blown apart
|
I feel like a helpless girl
|
In this tender troubled world
|
|
Another bomb lights up the night
|
For someone¡¯s vision of paradise
|
But it¡¯s just a wasted sacrifice
|
That fuels the hate on the other side
|
|
All in the name of a holy land
|
All to claim a line in the sand
|
|
Oh but the promised land
|
Is just across another line in the sand
|
Yeah but the promised land
|
Is just across another line in the sand
|
|
Just like at Calvary
|
Soldiers do the bidding of their king
|
And dreams are lost one at a time
|
Blown across both sides of the line
|
|
You can¡¯t kill a giant with just one stone
|
You can¡¯t erase the story of a family¡¯s home
|
A hate-filled heart still beats alone
|
Walking on that endless road
|
|
And there¡¯s so much blood on all our hands
|
It cuts an even deeper line in the sand
|
|
Chorus
|
|
I hope a forgiving rain will fall sometime
|
And wash away that line
|
|
Chorus
|

Line In The Sand
