He Crossed the Line
He loaded his family of 7 in a little silver van
knowing it could have all been prevented
No seatbelts on even the smallest of hand
his impatience with the semi ended
along with the tiniest of cries
now the rest of the family wonders why?
Chorus*He didnt wanna wait
so he crossed the line
he sealed his fate
and destroyed every life
never looked twice
into the bigger picture
he didnt wanna wait
before he crossed the line*
He heard the door close
turned to see her cry
sighed a breath of regret
knowing he could never try
He just didnt love her
the way he knew he should
he belonged to another
and hurt her as he knew he would
Chorus*He didnt wanna wait
so he crossed the line
he sealed his fate
and destroyed her life
never looked twice
into the bigger picture
he didnt wanna wait
before he crossed the line*
Bridge* Anyway you look at it
someone always gets broken
when the hand of greed
rips into the wide open*
