[00:00.00]Julia Stone - The Line That Ties Me
[00:01.23]
[00:13.48]The walls are talking and the only person
[00:18.83]who can hear me is nearly gone.
[00:24.91]I stand by your bedside, on the edge of words
[00:30.50]That I can''t say, for the fear that I might fall.
[00:40.24]Maybe I''m afraid that the pictures that I paint,
[00:46.00]Won''t capture the beauty of you.
[00:51.08]And the last thing that you hear is the silence in your ears,
[00:57.54]As I sink beneath the weight of it all.
[01:01.07]
[01:02.07]I could call you my lover, call you a beast,
[01:09.40]Call you the island, where faith doesn''t reach.
[01:15.41]Call you a lion, call you a man,
[01:20.66]You''re the line that ties me to things.
[01:25.50]I don''t understand.
[01:31.43]
[01:38.45]Your smile as you wither, is as pretty as the picture,
[01:44.95]You wouldn''t sell to the lady next door.
[01:50.19]You tell me music and art, it doesn''t have a price,
[01:55.05]It''s for the heart, I should give it away,
[01:58.55]Use it for the freedom of us all.
[02:01.70]
[02:04.63]I could call you my lover, call you a beast,
[02:10.64]Call you the island, where faith doesn''t reach.
[02:17.33]Call you a lion, call you a man,
[02:22.84]You''re the line that ties me to things.
[02:27.56]I don''t understand.
