Crossed The Line
Seether Lyrics

There's something really wrong this time
There is a significant issue or problem occurring at this moment

If I can only hold the line
If I can maintain control or stability in this situation

Then I can put it back the way it's meant to be (the way it's meant to be)
I can restore or fix it according to its original intended state

It's moving really fast and fine
It is progressing quickly and smoothly

And every little wish is mine
I have the ability to fulfill every small desire

It's something in the way it always seems to be
There is a consistent pattern or quality to it

Oh, about you
It primarily concerns or revolves around you

So I sow my message to
I express or communicate my message to

The broken part of you
The damaged or vulnerable aspect of your being

I should have known I crossed the line
I should have realized or recognized that I went beyond acceptable boundaries

When it feels like something new
When it gives the sensation of novelty or freshness

Sinking part of you
Causing a decline or descent in a portion of your being

The pressure's grown, I tripped a mine
The tension or stress has increased, and I unintentionally triggered a dangerous situation

Following the old guidelines
Adhering to the previous set of instructions or rules

And leave my common sense behind
Abandoning rational thinking or practicality

There's gotta be a way that we can all agree (that we can all agree)
There must exist a method or approach that everyone can concur on

The flesh is soaking in the brine
The physical body is immersed or saturated in a salty liquid

The atrophy is undefined
The wasting away or decay of physical strength or mental abilities is unclear or unknown

It's funny just the way it always seems to be
It is ironic or peculiar how it consistently unfolds

Well, I'm a slave to the wind and the water
I am completely controlled or dominated by natural elements

I gave blame to the birds and the bees
I attributed fault or responsibility to innocent factors or entities

And I will live in the mind of the daughter
I will exist or reside within the thoughts or consciousness of someone's female child

And now I hate and my mind is the seed
Currently, I harbor strong negative emotions, and my thoughts are the origin or source

I should have known I crossed the line
I should have realized or recognized that I went beyond acceptable boundaries

I'm a slave to the wind and the water
I am completely controlled or dominated by natural elements

I gave blame to the birds and the bees
I attributed fault or responsibility to innocent factors or entities

And I will live in the mind of the downer
I will exist or reside within the thoughts or consciousness of someone who is negative or pessimistic

And now I hate, and my mind is the seed
Currently, I harbor strong negative emotions, and my thoughts are the origin or source
