Julian Lennon - Imaginary Lines Lyrics

Send "Imaginary Lines" ringtone to your cell

Heaven help the soul that's severed

From the place where it belongs

Caught up in the mindless struggle

Of the weak against the strong

Headlights along the border

Keep the peace their law and order

Why can't we see it's all a record of lies?

It's their kind of strength their only defense

An imaginary line

Just a kid and his younger brother

Headed for the wire

Had no rights in the telescopic sights

Of the vigilante's rifle fire

But now he's buried on the border

Where the rivers are blood not water

Why can't we see it's all a record of lies?

It's their kind of truth it can only be proved

With imaginary lines

In times like these concernin'

Who decides which bridge is burnin'

Don't fall for map readin'

Just make sure that you're still breathin'

After the dreadful lines were drawn

The children would dream of the pearls

And how beautiful they were

Year after year they would dive to the bottom of the lagoon

Hoping that the oysters would come back

They risked everything

Their homes families and meager possessions

To search for the pearls to make sure

They were heavy enough to reach the bottom

The children tied stones to their backs many of them died

Streams of blood and broken bodies

Rose to the surface of the lagoon

And the lagoon cried cried cried cried

Why can't we see it's all a record of lies?

It's their kind of strength their only defense

An imaginary line

Why can't we see it's all a record of lies?

It's their kind of truth it can only be proved

With imaginary lines

Why can't we see it's all a record of lies?

It's their kind of strength their only defense

An imaginary line
