The Thin Line Lyrics by Queensrÿche

Empire

1990

[Verse 1]
Another hungry look, in her eyes again
Pacing the floor, the hunt begins
Skin-tight leather provides my pleasure
Wake my fear, surge with the pressure
Walk away and leave forever
Do I dare?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Raise my eyes, she stands
Holding out healing hands...
Are you happy now?

[Chorus]
I walk the Thin Line for you
Do just what you say to
With fear as my friend
I walk the Thin Line one more time for you

[Verse 2]
Addictive face pretending, don't speak the Word
Forbidden sin relenting, I barely heard...
Screams of entry blur my vision
Wake my fear of Divine Intervention
Crawl away and bleed forever, if you dare

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Hand on mouth the game goes on
Love, our stage to play upon
Are you happy now?

[Chorus]
I walk the Thin Line for you
Do just what you say to
With fear as my friend
I walk the Thin Line one more time for you

[Guitar Solo - Chris DeGarmo/Michael Wilton]

[Chorus]
I walk the Thin Line for you
Do just what you say to
I walk the Thin Line for you
Do just what you say to
With fear as my friend
I walk the Thin Line one more time for you
