Thin Line - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Precious power, woman to man

Cold blue steel in the palm of your hand

Shots of jealousy, fits of rage

One dream dies, the other one fades

Frozen still the heart that aches, imprisoned by the pain it takes

It leaves no stone unturned

No exception to the rules, sharpened swords and verbal duels

Can’t change the damage done

(Thin line, this time) it’s a thin line between love and hate

(Both sides testify) how much can one heart take

(No crime) watch out, don’t you hesitate

(Thin line, this time) it’s a thin line between love and hate, love and hate

Bed of roses, bed of nails

The sun is shining but the face is pale

Midnight madness, sex appeal

On the silver screen there’s nothing real

No relief for hungry heart, all the lies tear you apart

With no rhyme or reason

Whatever it takes to get you through, you shock yourself, you play the fool

And die when you’re all alone

(Thin line, this time) it’s a thin line between love and hate

(Both sides testify) how much can one heart take

(No crime) watch out, don’t you hesitate

(Thin line, this time) it’s a thin line between love and hate, love and hate

Haunted is your every move, addicted by the thing you do

Still reminds me of you

No relief for the hungry heart, all the lies tear you apart

When you try to hide the truth

(Thin line, this time) it’s a thin line between love and hate

(Both sides testify) how much can one heart take

(No crime) watch out, don’t you hesitate

(Thin line, this time) it’s a thin line between love and hate, love and hate
