White Heart Storyline
Boy was born on the edge of a blade
From dawn to dusk he slashes away
Saying, "don't touch me
don't mess with me now"
Nothing's sacred, no one's safe
Boy's got an attitude to last for days
He's walked over me time and again
No one's feelings ever matter to him
Lord I'm just so tired
Tell me what to do with him
Oh, listen to the storyline
Chapter written in another time
Oh, listen
Listen to the storyline
You'll begin to know the reason why
Pain just seems to haunt their lives
Ooh, listen to the storyline
She's the invisible girl
Sits at the edge of her visible world
And whispers, "don't touch me
don't notice me now"
Shadows have left their mark
Stole the innocence from her heart
Now she's afraid of what she might be
Draws the curtain so the world won't see
Thinking, "who would love
the person they would find in me"
Oh, listen to the storyline
Chapter written in another time
Oh, listen
Listen to the storyline
You'll begin to know the reason why
Pain just seems to haunt their lives
Ooh, listen to the storyline
Sometimes I can't believe the things I say
I've hurt them all in so many ways
Lord, I've played the game of hide and seek
When all I wanted was for them to see
See the lines upon my face
The memories have left their trace
Oh, everybody's got a storyline
Find the secrets hidden behind their eyes
Listen to the storyline
Then you'll know the reason why
The voice is telling you inside
Let compassion fill your heart and mind
Oh, you gotta take the time
To listen to the storyline
