defined by line

Somewhere in between the lines that are drawn by the sky
we exist like some dust collected on a lens overnight
Sister tell me, did you love me more, when we were younger before
When I called you, at night, pull the shades and blocking out the darkening light

Take me back to the simple time
When all was defined by a heavy line
In case, you forget, have a sense of regret
put to the test, future hazy at best

Buried in a drawer that I hid all my drugs before
We found some albums, two or three, that reminded me of me
"Only in dreams", "Brass Monkey", "Magical Mystery", "Crooked Teeth"
"Iron and Wine", "I Walk the Line", " My Funny Valentine", "You Don't Know Me"
I once read it's all in your head, so why don't my dreams just let me be
Failing to write a song every night, my grade point average just won't help me
Still employed, I still avoid, confronting issues confronting me
so just....

Take me back to the simple time
When all was defined by a heavy line
In case, you forget, have a sense of regret
put to the test, future hazy at best
