Sometimes in my bed at night   I curse the dark and a pray for light   And sometimes, the light's no consolation   Blinded by a memory   Afraid of what it might do to me   And the tears and the sweat only mock my desperation   Don't you know me I'm the boy next door   The one you find so easy to ignore   Is that what I was fighting for?   Walking on a thin line   Straight off the front line   Labeled as freaks loose on the streets of the city   Walking on a thin line   Straight off the front line   Take a look at my face, see what it's doing to me    Taught me how to shoot to kill   A specialist with a deadly skill   A skill I needed to have to be a survivor   It's over now or so they say   Well, sometimes, it don't turn out that way   Cause your never the same when you've been under fire   Don't you know me I'm the boy next door   The one you find so easy to ignore   Is that what I was fighting for?   Walking on a thin line   Straight off the front line   Labeled as freaks loose on the streets of the city   Walking on a thin line   Straight off the front line   Take a look at my face, see what it's doing to me
