“Fine Line” is the fifth addition to Vanilla’s “Pish Posh” collection. Recorded at EastWest Studios in Hollywood, Fine Line is pure heartland rock, inspired by the Southern California sounds of the city it was recorded in. Sean Gaffney presents a story about contrasts and hard-held beliefs — where the borders aren’t always as clear as we might imagine.
lyrics
It’s a fine line where your walking and more so when you talk
Seeking a reaction, comes at quite a cost
You drew a fine line in winds and shifting sands
You fell to pieces under challenge and exam
But I know for sure the train is jumping tracks
Go investigate, intimidate and never take it back
You knew the difference between pleasure and the pain
You tried to tell me that it all feels they same
But I know for sure the train is jumping tracks
Go investigate, intimidate and never take it back
Who really understands, who to trust and where to land
Some checks you can’t backdate, you made the deal your fate is sealed
But I know for sure the train is jumping tracks
Go investigate, intimidate and never take it back
It’s a fine fine line
