Dividing Line Lyrics

Party animal or a bird in a cage

mine is a double the spirit of the age

money for old rope, the coin spinning round

your time is up, your time is down



I could read a book, I could watch a film

I could spend a day perfectly still

A solitary ring on a link in a chain

we could look alike but we're not all tame



I want it, I want it all the same

but I'm learning on the way

I wanna remember all the colours and the sounds and the shades

but I'm learning on the way



There's someone here to freeze, it couldn't be

A lot of people tease that we were free

I fell off my chair, I flew into the air

but I didn't land, didn't land nowhere



I want it, I want it all the same

But I'll learn it on the way

I wanna remember all the colours and the sounds and the shades

But I'll learn it on the way



I don't care what they were doing before

I don't care what, they could do it again, again

I don't even care what they are doing here right now

But I'll learn it on the way



and the margin's so wide there's a line down the middle

straight down the middle a dividing line

never, never, never getting anything together

never getting anything together one time



I want it, I want it all the same

But I'll learn it on the way

I wanna remember all the colours and the sounds and the shades

But I'll learn it on the way



learning on the way
