Story Behind The Song
Over the last few years I have found my life impacted tremendously by loved ones around me struggling with mental illness..it can be a nightmare. But I feel the line between balance and imbalance is indeed 'very thin'. It doesn't take much to tip the scales. Most of us experience these drops depending on circumstances but when it continues it is so debilitating.

Lyrics
You fight the demons inside
Always
You've tried a thousand tears to hide
Always
And it's a thin line
It's a thin line
It's a thin line
That separates us
You've taken shelter from the pain
Always
Now you lose yourself
You walk away
Close the door
Never choose to stay
And I tell you it's a thin line
It's a thin line
It's a thin line
That separates us
Crazy,
This life can be crazy
Crazy, crazy
We all fight the demons inside
Always
