[Verse 1]
It's hard to tell
Just when the night becomes the day
That golden moment
When the darkness rolls away
But there is a moment nonetheless
In the regions of the heart there is a place
A sacred charter that should not be erased
It is the marrow, the moral core
That I can not ignore
[Chorus]
Within the scheme of things
Well, I know where I stand
My convictions they define who I am
Some move the boundaries at any cost
But there is a line I will not cross
No riding on the fence, no alibis
No building on the sands of compromise
I won't be borrowed and I can't be bought, no
There is a line I will not cross
[Verse 2]
Ask the ocean
Where the water meets the land
He will tell you
It depends on where you stand
And you're neither right or wrong
But in the fathoms
Of the soul that won't ring true
'Cause truth is more
Than an imposing point of view
It rises above the changing tide
As sure as the morning sky
It's hard to tell
Just when the night becomes the day
That golden moment
When the darkness rolls away
But there is a moment nonetheless
In the regions of the heart there is a place
A sacred charter that should not be erased
It is the marrow, the moral core
That I can not ignore
[Chorus]
Within the scheme of things
Well, I know where I stand
My convictions they define who I am
Some move the boundaries at any cost
But there is a line I will not cross
No riding on the fence, no alibis
No building on the sands of compromise
I won't be borrowed and I can't be bought, no
There is a line I will not cross
[Verse 2]
Ask the ocean
Where the water meets the land
He will tell you
It depends on where you stand
And you're neither right or wrong
But in the fathoms
Of the soul that won't ring true
'Cause truth is more
Than an imposing point of view
It rises above the changing tide
As sure as the morning sky
