|
Time to tell me the truth |
|
To burden your mouth for what you say |
|
No pieces of paper in the way |
|
'Cause I can't continue pretending to choose |
|
These opposite sides on which we fall |
|
The loving you laters if at all |
|
No right minds could wrong, be this many times |
|
My memory is cruel |
|
I'm queen of attention to details |
|
Defending intentions if he fails |
|
Until now, he told me her name |
|
It sounded familiar in a way |
|
That I could have sworn I'd heard him say it |
|
Ten thousand times, oh, if only I had been listening |
|
Leave unsaid, unspoken |
|
Eyes wide shut, unopened |
|
You and me always between the lines |
|
Between the lines |
|
I thought I, thought I was ready to bleed |
|
That we'd move from the shadows on the wall |
|
Stand in the center of it all |
|
Too late, two choices, to stay or to leave |
|
Mine was so easy to uncover |
|
He'd already left with the other |
|
So I learned to listen through silence |
|
Leave unsaid, unspoken |
|
Eyes wide shut, unopened |
|
You and me always be |
|
You and me always be |
|
I tell myself all the words he surely meant to say |
|
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on |
|
Wait for me, I'm almost ready when he meant let go |
|
Leave unsaid, unspoken |
|
Eyes wide shut, unopened |
|
You and me always be |
|
You and me always between the lines |
|
Between the lines, between the lines |
