Throw Down A Line Songtext / Lyric

Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's drowning in the stormy sea

Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's hanging in a nowhere tree

Have you got a place for me



Men are tied in chains of silence

I look on violence, up, down, left and right

Is there no hope of light

The peaceful hand that once caressed me



Hurts like the rest, because it's turned to stone

Talons of steel have grown



Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's drowning in the stormy sea

Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's hanging in a nowhere tree

Have you got a place for me



Yeah, oh help me, yeah






Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's drowning in the stormy sea

Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's hanging in a nowhere tree

Have you got a place for me



See the moon, it's getting nearer

But no more clearer than the earth below

What do we really know

I feel the stab of pain returning

Despair is burning in my heart again

Why don't they see the end, ooooh



Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's drowning in the stormy sea

Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's hanging in a nowhere tree

Have you got a place for me



Throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's drowning in the stormy sea

Yeah, throw down a line, help a poor boy

Who's hanging in a nowhere tree

Have you got a place for me
