The Line That No One Drew

Shadows pull at the edges of the day I turn my face to the open gray

They handed me a map with every road drawn straight Told me where to stand and how to wait But the lines begin to blur beneath my feet I step aside and feel the ground give way

No one calls my name when I drift too far Still the quiet feels like home

I walk the line that no one drew Let the old world fade from view Every step I take is mine alone Breaking free from what they own I am not the shape they made I am the choice that won’t be swayed

Faces turn when I refuse the easy lane Voices warn me I will lose my place Yet the warning only sharpens what I know I keep the distance growing in my veins

I walk the line that no one drew Let the old world fade from view Every step I take is mine alone Breaking free from what they own I am not the shape they made I am the choice that won’t be swayed

There are nights the weight returns And I almost turn around But the sky ahead still calls me on And I remember why I left the ground

I walk the line that no one drew Let the old world fade from view Every step I take is mine alone Breaking free from what they own I am not the shape they made I am the choice that won’t be swayed

The road behind grows small and still I keep on walking where I will
