Dividing Lines (song #132)

Dividing Lines

Patience is a virtue
But I don't like to wait
A test of what I’m made of
Feels like I’m putting (slamming?) on the brakes

Well, compassion is a saint
But you don’t feel so free
Putting all the (your?) pieces together
Feels like you’re trying to rescue me

Careful of the secrets that you try to hide
Careful of the dividing lines

Honesty’s a savior
But I still feel so bound
Breaking up old habits
Feels like a run around

Elevation is a promise
But you still feel so low
Taking so many simple steps
Feels like you're moving way too slow

Careful of the secrets that you try to hide
Careful of the dividing lines

Changing the me in you
Changes the you in me

Careful of the secrets that you try to hide
Careful of the dividing lines
