Wrapping text on a path in after effects divides into lines

Hi, 

I'm trying to do an animation were text create a bunch of different waves and lines.
My problem is that I create a path to wrap the text on using a mask, but at some random point during the text it creates a line break even when it hasn't finished wrapping the whole path. Does anyone have any idea of what i can do?

 

I have already tried changing the shape starightening some nodes but it still creates this break. 

Even if I turn on force alignment it doesn't help it forces the two lines.

There is also not a break in the text, I haven't pressed enter in between lines to create the break.

I suspect that you created a text box by clicking and dragging with the Type tool before you added the text. 

 

The other problem could have been a carriage return.
