Lyrics Between the Lines - I The Mighty

Between the Lines

The morning attack
You pull the curtains back and light sheds upon the scene
Remembered like a moment in a dream
Home, the place I should have gone and slept alone
But came to your house to clear my head
And ended with the taste of sin instead
If I could know what I do, back then
I would make you eat the words you laced with cyanide
Hold your tongue for you, you must lay awake at night
And let this eat you up inside
Why, why don’t you deny it all?
But time has shown me everything
All of those pathologic games you played
The nights you walked away from me
I’ll read between the lines
You belong in a convalescent home
With locks on every window and writing on the walls, strapped to a chair
Spoon-fed with therapy and small purple pills that hold your sanity
You know damn well that your head’s more of a prison than this cell
Let by the thought that all you got is who you’re with, well
Bite your lip for you, you must lay awake at night
And let this eat you up inside
Why, why don’t you deny it all?
But time has shown me everything
All of those pathologic games you played
The nights you walked away from me
I’ll read between the lines
If I could know what I do, back then
I would make you eat the words you laced with cyanide
Now I see that I am one
One of the so many convinced
Of a million men
You were so much more than this
Who had given you a life by letting you take mine
Well, I’m yours no more for I have found a way out
I have found a way out
You must lay awake at night
And let this eat you up inside
Why, why don’t you deny it all?
But time has shown me everything
All of those twisted little games you played
It’s my turn to walk away
I’ll read between the lines
I’ll read between the lines
I’ll read between the lines
