[Trace the Line] [Verse 1] Heart and Eyes forced shut Too heavy to lift off of the floor He finds his center He tries to see, just a little, nothing more A small speck, a dot Of something barely light Comes creeping in From somewhere out of sight [Pre-Chorus] He touches the light One finger at a time For its all that it can hold he faces life Paying for a crime Of which he was never told [Chorus] One, two, three He counts every step Trace the lines back to the light The tiny world That he can’t see Living forever in the night One gleam of hope Coming from somewhere else Shines directly on his floor From there he tries Through desperate cries To map his tiny world [Verse 2] He hits a cold and metal thing Mumbling numbers under his breath He counts them back to the centers light And never stops for rest [Pre-Chorus] His steps grow heavy Shoulders pulled back By large invisible chains Despite all his effort He can never really hide From the weight caused by his pain [Chorus] One, two, three He counts every step Trace the lines back to the light The tiny world That he can’t see Living forever in the night One gleam of hope Coming from somewhere else Shines directly on his floor From there he tries Through desperate cries To map his tiny world [Bridge] Tethered to the light He never wonders too far He always comes back home In the dark, something bright Seemed to leave a scar That he still fights to never show [Chorus] One, two, three He counts every step Trace the lines back to the light The tiny world That he can’t see Living forever in the night One gleam of hope Coming from somewhere else Shines directly on his floor From there he tries Through desperate cries To map his tiny world [Final Chorus - Outro Fade-out] One, two, three He counts every step Trace the lines back to the light The tiny world That he can’t see Living forever in the night One gleam of hope Coming from somewhere else Shines directly on his floor From there he tries Through desperate cries To map his tiny world
