The line that we’re walking
Is not always smooth
Not always clear
How to stick with its groove
We’re finding our balance
Keeping in time
Tripping on treasure
We’ll make it play fine
Tripping on treasure
We’ll make it play fine
Just gotta do what we just gotta do
Do what we do what we do what we do
Just gotta do what we just gotta do
Do what we do wap wap wap wap be doo
So much is said
Yet unspoken
Sparks come to life
Pipe-dreams are smoking
Wafts weave from lapels
Lest we forget
What ‘s breathed out
Gets caught in our net
What ‘s breathed out
Gets caught in our net
Craziness lies
Either side of our line
Pedestrian right
Patinas the shine
Sudden death on the left
Suicidal implosion
Heeding signs
Tho it’s hard to be certain
We’re heeding the signs
Tho it’s hard to be certain
Just gotta do what we just gotta do
Do what we do what we do what we do
Just gotta do what we just gotta do
Do what we do wap wap wap wap be doo
When the line that we’re walking
Inclines to a blade
Watch closely
Ignore the pain
If we fall either side
There’ll be no getting up
So spread out our arms
Entrust
Spread out our arms
Entrust
And if we fall
We fall
And if we fall
We fall
And it’s an end
To it all
Protecting and serving
The best that we can
Insurrecting and swerving
From when we began
The misunderstood
Are forgiven their misdeeds
The truth is just that
Nobody mind-reads
The truth is just that
Nobody mind-reads
Reality sliced
One’s own reflective
Trick-mirror vision
A particular perspective
It’s why even when
We’re doing our utmost
Parallel minds meet
At alternate end posts
Parallel minds meet
At alternate end posts
Parallel minds meet
At alternate end posts
Just gotta do what we just gotta do
Do what we do what we do what we do
Just gotta do what we just gotta do
Do what we do wap wap wap wap be doo
Be do wap be doooo
We doooooooooo
