There Are Lines lyrics
There Are Lines
[Soichiro: Verse 1]
There are lines that can't be crossed
There are thing you shouldn't do
For you pay too high a cost
And you lose a piece of you
You don't justify the means
In the service of an end
Smashing laws to smithereens
Till there aren't any rules left to break or mend
Set a thief to catch a thief
Trap a liar with a lie
But don't traffic in this grief
In the name of eye for eye
Nothing wrong can turn out right
By saying wrong's all right to do
Men of principle must fight
So the truth that's in the man
That you are stays true
[Chorus]
You don't kill someone
As a substitute
You don't load a gun
Close your eyes and shoot
You don't kill a man
Just to buy a clue
This is not a plan
Lawmen can pursue
[Light: Verse 2]
Father, you know that I feel as you do
For these lessons I learned at your knee
And I think maybe by working with you
Helping you will be helpful for me
[Soichiro: Chorus]
You don't kill someone
[Light]
You don't kill someone
[Soichiro]
As a substitute!
[Light]
As a substitute!
[Soichiro]
You don't load a gun
[Light]
You don't
[Soichiro, Light]
Close your eyes and shoot!
[Soichiro]
You don't kill a man just to read the signs
[Light]
That's no better than
Bad that good defines
[Soichiro]
Never cross these lines
[Light]
Never cross these lines
[Soichiro, Light]
Never cross these lines!
