| | Borderline Lyrics Artist(Band):Thin Lizzy
At the bar drinking all on my own Just thinking about that girl and me How something's going wrong Mister, tell me, what's my saving grace? The back room boys Were all telling me I'm a borderline case Back on the borderline one more time Seven beers and still sober It's time to change to something stronger I cannot take this scene no longer She could have told me it's all over Back in my home town The old place is still the same But time can cast a spell over something You can't go back again Back on the borderline one more time Mister, fill me another Till I go crazy and it turn my mind around Just pass that bottle one more time And slowly sink it down Jeanie can I tell you? The shame of my disgrace It's just love or rejection For this borderline case Back on the borderline one more time I'm on my bended knees crawling I'm begging you darling If you find some error in Borderline Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Thanks to lecolonel9904@hotmail.com for submitting the lyrics. Review about Borderline Review of Borderline by Thin Lizzy | Reviewer: Ron Wood | 8/17/2008 Phil Lynott and Brian Robertson have written a great song about the emotions a man is feeling as he becomes aware his relationship is disintegrating. For a hard rock band such as Lizzy to write such a senstive song expressing vulnerabiity, shows the breadth as well of the depth of their lyrics. This song was on the Johnny The Fox album released in 1876 the ssame year as Jailbreak which featured The Boys are Back in Town with it's much more robust line 'If that chick don't want to know forget her'. The lyrics tell of the feeling of inadequacy and failure to cope that can acompany a breakup. There are many great lyrics '7 beers and still sober' and 'mister fill me another till I go crazy and it turn my mind around' show the futility of trying to drown your sorrows while 'The shame pf my disgrrace' powerfully displays the feelings of guilt for whatever reason. In my opinion the most poignant line 'mister tell me, what's my saving grace?' which sums up the feelings of loss, confusion and lack of self belief. The lyrics are complimented by the music which is sad but has a liveliness which offers hope and leaves the listener more sympathtic than downcast by the protagonist's position. Givne Lynott's lifestory this song serves as an another beautifully expressed example of the emotional fragilty and intelligence that underpinned 'The Rocker'.
