The Dividing Line Lyrics by Genesis

The Dividing Line Lyrics

    There has always been a dividing line
    But you choose, you choose, yes you choose not to see it
    And then you wonder why you fall
    It cuts through the heart of every city
    If you climb to the top of the highest building
    You can see where it falls 'cause the streetlights stop
    The colours start to change
    You hear a voice inside you
    Not the words that you wanted to hear
    Not the things that you wanted to see hey, hey, hey, hey

    In the comfort and safety of your own home
    Remember those outside in the cold
    And the wind and the rain
    And take in your hands a little ray of light
    And turn it into a beam that pierces the darkness of the night

    There has always been a dividing line
    But you choose, you choose, yes you choose not to see it
    Sometimes we believe if we close our eyes
    The rain might wash it away
    That's why we stumble and we fall
    Not the words that you wanted to hear
    Not the things that you wanted to see hey, hey, hey, hey

    When everything that you hold dear to you
    Has finally faded away from your life
    The last cold ray of sunshine slowly disappears
    Round the corner of the building
    And leaves you alone
    When darkness covers the city and the streets are silent too
    What will you turn to...
