Underline

[loraline]

Any and all suggestions are welcome

Underline

Black simple black and white
Simple dark and simple white
Lines, straight parallel lines
Strengthened through adult times

Come watch over me

I’ve seen things cut me to the core
I don’t wanna see what seems no more
It’s all I know
It’s not for me
I keep the love inside that’s free
And let it bleed inside of me
Let it roam running free

These things I have to do for me
This is all that interests me now

Fire, acid tears and rain
Burning my face everywhere
Scars deep inside my eyes
Heal them covered in disguise

It took a while but then
Time will heal and time will mend
In the end

For miles and miles
For miles and miles

Throw out the clothes I wore that day
They never suited anyway
Some special times I walk the life
Far too much has to die
To kill this inside of me
So I can fake and breathe for free
These things I have to do my friend
You’re not around to make amends

The final time you come to life
In these words these words of mine
This is the end
This is goodbye
This is my underline

I know the dates when it comes to pass
Each time less
And the last
Until it just becomes the day
That will rain
I don’t think on time

Thanks Loraline for these lyrics, I love this song, one of the best demos, above all, this part:

The final time you come to life
In these words these words of mine
This is the end
This is goodbye
This is my underline

I've tried to figure out the lyrics of this song a long time ago because it really is one of my favs and maybe the one I can relate to the most.
That's what I came up with, some lines are different from yours, loraline, and I'm quite unsure about my version, especially at the end!? Anyway:

UNDERLINE

Black, simple black and white
Simple dark and simple light
Lines, straight parallel lines
Straight and true at all times
Covers over me, yeah

I've seen things cut me to the core
I don't wanna see those things no more
'Cause all I know it's not for me
I'll keep the love inside this free
And let it bleed inside of me
Let it roam, running free
These things I have to do for me
This is all that interests me now

Life, as it tears away
Burning my face every day
Scars deep inside my eyes
Heal them covered in disguise
It took a while but then
Time will heal and time will mend, yeah
I'll see for miles and miles
Hear for miles and miles

Throw out the clothes I wore that day
They never suited anyway
Some special times I won't deny
But far too much has to die
To kill off this inside of me
So I can think and breathe for free
These things I have to do my friend
You're not allowed to make comments

The final time you've come to mine
In these words these words of mine
This is the end
This says goodbye
This is my underline

I'll note the dates when it comes surpass
Each time less than the last
Until it just becomes a day
That you may all don't think or say

Thanks so much for the lyrics! I just realised that I haven't listened to this one in a while, but should as it is a beautiful song.

Frustrating... your lyrics do make a lot of sense to me, Jade.. I can easily be way wrong with my lyrics.

Perhaps theafroshane knows a bit more? tas... you often know more about Johns music than we do... perhaps you could help us out a little?
