"Fault Lines" lyrics

"Fault Lines"

See those fault lines
Laid down like land mines
It's hard to relax
A promise broken
The ground breaks open
Love falls through the cracks

And I've got a few of my own
I've got a few of my own fault lines
Running under my life
Running under my life

I'm alone here
I play the odds, dear
I go where I please
Down below
The man I know might not be me

And I've got a few of my own
I've got a few of my own fault lines
Running under my life
Running under my life

On the high wire
Above the wildfire
An old acrobat
On faulty cable
Still he's able
Not to fall flat

And I've got a few of my own
I've got a few of my own fault lines
Running under my life
Running under my life
