I'm on a stateline
I'm needing the light to break
Life on the grapevine
It bleeds black and white and grey
I've got a straight spine
But your heart is filed away
So come on and take mine
It's leading me miles astray
These signs show the way past my concerns
Sunrise reveals reflections off the surface of your words
North is an incline
The wind, and a wild bouquet
South is the dateline
I'm leading a life halfway
These signs show the way past my concerns
Sunrise knows the texture of the roots I loved
I've tried to coax a path from warm embers
I'll light a fire to stop the fire, to help control your burn
Light a fire, light a fire to stop, to help control your burn
A fire, light a fire to stop, to help control your burn
I'm on a stateline
I'm leaving a night's delay
Cause I've got a great line
I just need your mouth to say
These signs show the way past my concerns
Sunrise knows the texture of the roots I loved
I've tried to coax a path from warm embers
I'll light a fire to stop the fire, to help control your burn
I'm on a stateline
I'm needing the light to break
