about

This song is an expression of the inner conflict between good and evil. It was written in the middle of the night after a good meal and a long talk with a friend. After this evening the world seemed so upside down.

"Draw the Line" is the second song of the upcoming "EP Child".

lyrics

I see a hunger for more
but no one's quite sure
what everything's for
I see it falling apart
the world oh it's hard
it began right from the start

Oh why are we even lookin’ for the answers?
cause there are many
can only one be proved right?
Oh why are we even lookin’ for the answers?
there are so many
And no one's quite sure, no one's quite sure

I see them crumbling down
ideals that I've crowned
where's the truth to be found?
Where is that peace and rest
that used to be in my chest
when I was a naive child
when I used to dream and feel so wild?

I can see that there's right
I can see that there's wrong
I can see that there's light
I can see that there's shadow
I can see that there's truth
I can see that there are lies
But everyone's wondering:
Where do we draw the line?
Oh...

I can see that there are some
that caught a glimpse of what comes
they might win in the long run
