I'm walking on a fine line
between my life and the time I spend with you
We operate on your dime,
Hot eyes, late nights, and borrowed truths
Creatures of high society- they get high on who they try to be!
You and I lock eyes naturally-
The only good thing in this room is you and me
Don't you wanna get up and go?
Why we always hide in the shadows?
Coulda spent the whole night alone.
But are the fine lines all that you know?
You can take your time
Try to walk your straight line, falling all over yourself
I don't wanna die
Or live a lie trying to hold up someone else
Waking up, your blood in my mouth- (ahh!)
Laughing at you so blown out
Don't you wanna get up and go?
Why we always hide in the shadows?
Coulda spent the whole night alone
But are the fine lines all that you know?
Don't you wanna get up and go?
(We don't need to talk about it)
Why we always hide in the shadows?
(Maybe we can work around it)
Coulda spent the whole night alone
(Maybe you should worry bout it)
But are the fine lines all that u know?
(Yeah you can turn your body out - but can you turn Urbani out?
Yeah you can turn your body out- but can you turn Urbani out?)
Don't you wanna get up and go?
Why we always hide in the shadows?
Coulda spent the whole night alone
But are the fine lines all that you know?
Don't you wanna get up and go?
Why we always hide in the shadows?
Coulda spent the whole night alone
But are the fine lines all that you know?

A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe. Crow Yo
